seven o’clock in the morning
`` A man who is obliged to be out and about day and night had better be careful . '' `` If he is , he has good reason to be , '' said Tonsard , sententiously . `` So , '' continued Vermichel , `` he said to Monsieur Michaud , ` I 'll go as soon as the court is up . ' If he had wanted to find the cows he 'd have gone at seven o'clock in the morning . But that did n't suit Michaud , and Brunet has had to be off . You ca n't take in Michaud , he 's a trained hound ! Ha , the brigand ! ''
