nine o’clock
We went out of the old orchard where the autumn night wind was beginning to make its weird music in the russet boughs , and shut the little gate behind us . Our revels there were ended . The morning dawned , rosy and clear and frosty . Everybody was up early , for the travellers must leave in time to catch the nine o'clock train . The horse was harnessed and Uncle Alec was waiting by the door . Aunt Janet was crying , but everybody else was making a valiant effort not to . The Awkward Man and Mrs. Dale came to see the last of their favourite .
