ten o'clock
Clara accepted the new attitude of her uncle and aunt without comment . In the afternoon she did not come home from the University but went to Kate 's apartment . The brother came home and after dinner played on the piano . At ten o'clock Clara started home afoot and Kate accompanied her . The two women went out of their way to sit on a bench in a park . They talked of a thousand hidden phases of life Clara had hardly dared think of before . During all the rest of her life she thought of those last weeks in Columbus as the most deeply satisfactory time she ever lived through .
