about eight o'clock
Before I did that I told Judson , but I do n't think he took it in . He 'd been lit up like a house afire all evening . I asked for his gun , but he said he did n't know where it was , and I went back to my house and got my own . Along about eight o'clock I thought I saw some one in the shrubbery , and I went out as quietly as I could . But it was a woman , Hattie Thorwald , who was working at the ranch . `` When I left the men were playing roulette . I looked in as I went back , and Judson had a gun in his hand .
