about one o'clock
The two prisoners captured by Barnstable the night before , one of whom was the smirking and sinister Pierre , were compelled to dig all the time . Even Teddy , Lady Agatha 's little Pomeranian , dug . The ladies of the party slept throughout the morning . During the forenoon Cleggett dispatched Dr. Farnsworth to the city in Miss Henrietta Pringle 's Ford car , and he returned about one o'clock with four more trained nurses . They were installed on board the houseboat Annabel Lee , instead of at Parker 's Beach as Cleggett had originally intended , and the Red Cross flag was hoisted over that vessel . Cleggett felt confident that the next battle would be sanguinary in character , and , true to his humanitarian ideals , was resolved to be fully prepared this time to care for as many people as he might disable . Giuseppe Jones , who was quieter now , although at times still irrationally babbling incendiary vers libre poems , was removed to the Annabel Lee , where Miss Medley , quite worn out , turned him over to a fresh nurse .
