midnight
`` You see , Harrington brought your brother to one of the pre-term time jollifications some of the fellows think they must have before coming up here . I was there . I did n't care about going very much , but my room mate would go , and I went to take care of him more than anything else . `` Well , all the fellows except your brother and myself were more than half seas over before midnight . He became disgusted and got out . I was busy with Cheever , and did n't have time to question him . Naturally Harrington feels a little sore over the thing .
