five o'clock
Harry spent the afternoon as directed , and was mightily amused and entertained by the sights which he witnessed . Especially was he interested in London Bridge , which , covered closely with houses , stretched across the river , and at the great fleet of vessels which lay moored to the wharves below . Here Harry spent the greater portion of the afternoon , watching the numerous boats as they shot the bridge , and the barges receiving merchandise from the vessels . At five o'clock the shop was shut , and at six supper was served in the same order as dinner had been . At eight they retired to bed . `` Well , Master Roger , '' said Jacob , when they were done , `` and what is thy father ? '' `` He farms a piece of land of his own , '' Harry said .
