eight o'clock
It is evident that your head is not so thick as you thought it was just now . Yes , I have noticed that as a rule if eight or ten waggons came in together , the full sacks are carried in , and the same number of empty ones are placed in one of the carts , being counted as they are put in . Certainly I could hide myself easily enough if you were there to assist in arranging the sacks as regularly as before over me . As I do not generally get up until eight o'clock , and my first meal is not brought to me till nine , I might be on my way two hours before it was discovered that I was missing . How would you manage ? '' `` I would get a countryman 's suit , master , would go out soon after the gates were open , find some quiet spot where I should have hidden the clothes the day before , and slip them on over my own . Then I would join the carts as they came along .
