two o'clock
Philip 's gallant conduct had won him great favour with my officers and men , and I must say that I felt very proud of him . As soon as we had anchored both vessels , I went on shore with Philip to Mr Trevannion 's to give him an account of what had occurred during the short cruise , and I hardly need say that he was satisfied with the results , as we had made three recaptures of value besides a privateer . I introduced Philip to him , acquainting him with his miraculous preservation , and Mr Trevannion very kindly invited him for the present to remain in his house . We then took our leave , promising to be back by dinner-time , and I went with Philip to fit him out in a more creditable way ; and having made my purchases and given my orders , -LRB- it being then almost two o'clock _ post meridiem _ , -RRB- we hastened to Mr Trevannion 's , that we might be in time for dinner . I was , I must confess , anxious to see Miss Trevannion , for she had often occupied my thoughts during the cruise . She met me with great friendliness and welcomed me back . Our dinner was very agreeable , and Philip 's sallies were much approved of .
