eleven o'clock
All the morning I was uneasy -- I hardly knew why . Peter felt it as I did . There was no sound from the Ladleys ' room , and the house was quiet , except for the lapping water on the stairs and the police patrol going back and forth . At eleven o'clock a boy in the neighborhood , paddling on a raft , fell into the water and was drowned . I watched the police boat go past , carrying his little cold body , and after that I was good for nothing . I went and sat with Peter on the stairs . The dog 's conduct had been strange all morning .
