a quarter to seven
But that drivelling married man sat there and cackled when he won a man like an unintelligent hen picking up a grain of corn . `` When the game was over Perry gets up and looks at his watch . '' ` I 've had a glorious time , Buck , ' says he , ` but I 'll have to be going now . It 's a quarter to seven , and I got to be home by seven , you know . ' `` I thought he was joking . '' ` They 'll clear out or be dead drunk in half an hour or an hour , ' says I. ` You ai n't that tired of being married that you want to commit any more sudden suicide , are you ? ' says I , giving him the laugh . ''
