eleven o'clock
Will had called several times for help , but there was no response . He now addressed his boozy companion : `` I must get you up out of this somehow , and work you along where the steps are . The wall is too high to boost you up here . If this is n't interesting , nigh eleven o'clock , pitch dark , down in this old dock blundering with you , drank as a fool ! I feel like laughing . '' `` Yes -- hic -- you 're drunk -- as a -- fool -- and I want -- to -- hic -- laugh -- he -- he -- he ! '' Will did really laugh now .
