eight o'clock
Raven threw a curse at him , but Tenney broke into a limping run and jumped into the tail of the wagon and sat there , his legs dangling . And he called so piercingly to Martin to drive along , to `` Hurry , for God 's sake , hurry ! '' that Martin did whip up , and the wagon whirled away , and Raven hurried on alone . That night , at eight o'clock , Nan went over to ask if Raven had come home , and finding he had not , loitered back to her own gate and waited . She could not go in . If she kept her mind on him , he might come . And presently he came .
