three o'clock
I have a copy of the log-book before me now , the one that was used at the trial . The men read it through before they signed it . August thirteenth . This morning , between two-thirty and three o'clock , three murders were committed on the yacht Ella . At the request of Mrs. Johns , one of the party on board , I had moved to the after house to sleep , putting my blanket and pillow in the storeroom and sleeping on the floor there . Mrs. Johns gave , as her reason , a fear of something going wrong , as there was trouble between Mr. Turner and the captain . I slept with a revolver beside me and with the door of the storeroom open .
