six o'clock
This dale is as unattractive as the town . At the office they told us where Uncle Gaspard , Alexix 's uncle , lived . It was in a winding street , which led from the hill to the river , at a little distance from the mine . When we reached the house , a woman who was leaning up against the door talking to two or three neighbors told me that Gaspard , the miner , would not be back until six o'clock . `` What do you want of him ? '' she asked . `` I want to see Alexix , his nephew . ''
