ten o'clock
`` Ye know not what shall be on the morrow . '' To Gregory 's unfeigned sorrow Mr. Walton was not well enough to appear at the breakfast-table the following morning . Annie was flitting in and out with a grave and troubled face . But by ten o'clock he seemed better and fell asleep . Leaving Miss Eulie watching beside him , she came and said , `` Now , Mr. Gregory , I can keep my promise in part , and take a short walk with you . You can well understand why I can not be away long . '' `` Please do not feel that you must go , '' he said .
