ten o'clock
First , I telephoned to Fort Wayne for the material I wanted to be sent without fail on the afternoon train . Then I drove to the homes of the people I wished to use for subjects and made appointments for sittings , and ransacked the cabin for costumes . The letter came on the eight A.M. train . At ten o'clock I was photographing Colonel Lupton beside my dining-room fireplace for the father in the story . At eleven I was dressing and posing Miss Lizzie Huart for the princess . At twelve I was picturing in one of my bed rooms a child who served finely for Little Sister , and an hour later the same child in a cemetery three miles in the country where I used mounted butterflies from my cases , and potted plants carried from my conservatory , for a graveyard scene . The time was early November , but God granted sunshine that day , and short focus blurred the background .
