midnight
Hugh went to the station with his new-found friend and sat down in the lighted office . The railroad man got out a sheet of paper and began to write a letter . `` I 'm going to get you that job , '' he said . `` I 'm writing the letter now and I 'll get it off on the midnight train . You 've got to get on your feet . I was a boozer myself , but I cut it all out . A glass of beer now and then , that 's my limit . ''
