half past nine
You did n't need to come here this way at all , and we know it perfectly well . You did it just because you are nice girls and wanted to be friendly , and we appreciate the way you 've come a good deal more than we do the lovely presents , even . '' `` Well , I hope we 'll see you again , '' said Marcia . `` If you 're going on that half past nine boat we 'll go back now , and let you pack , unless we can help you ? '' `` No , you ca n't help us . We 've really got very little to do . But do n't go .
