ten o'clock
Half an hour afterwards we are installed at the Hotel of _ Ten Thousand Dreams _ . There we are served with a dinner in Chinese style . The repast being over -- towards the second watch -- we lay ourselves on beds that are too narrow in rooms with little comfort , and sleep not the sleep of the just , but the sleep of the exhausted -- and that is just as good . I did not wake before ten o'clock , and I might have slept all the morning if the thought had not occurred to me that I had a duty to fulfil . And what a duty ! To call in the Avenue Cha Coua before the delivery of the unhappy case to Mademoiselle Zinca Klork . I arise .
