four in the
afternoon
`` There is nothing to forgive . The idea crossed my mind on the way here , and I was cautious . '' `` Close to the Place du Carrousal , '' said Bruslart , `` in a side street , there is a wine shop , an iron sign representing three barrels hangs over the door ; if you could pass there every afternoon at four , I could find you when I was ready for your help . '' Barrington promised to make a habit of passing this place at four in the afternoon and took his leave . He had hoped that Bruslart would have accomplished more , but it was something that he had done so much . It was absurd to feel any disappointment , in so short a time what more could he have done ? Yet Barrington walked rapidly and in the direction of the Rue Valette .
