seven o'clock
`` It 's the first time in my life I ever had real play , '' Billy said . `` An ' you an ' me never played at all all the time we was married . This beats bein ' any kind of a millionaire . '' `` No seven o'clock whistle , '' Saxon exulted . `` I 'd lie abed in the mornings on purpose , only everything is too good not to be up . And now you just play at chopping some firewood and catching a nice big perch , Man Friday , if you expect to get any dinner . '' Billy got up , hatchet in hand , from where he had been lying prone , digging holes in the sand with his bare toes .
