midnight
Here we are at the same gate , but I guess there 's not much danger , now ! '' `` Fran ! '' cried Abbott , with burning cheeks , `` I did n't tell her , upon my honor I did n't . I _ had _ to admit dropping the card , to keep her from thinking you out here at midnight with a stranger . She saw us in the shadow , and guessed -- that other . I did n't tell her anything about your age . I did n't mention the carnival company . ''
