He came straight home from the pit , and stayed in at evening till Friday , and then he could not remain at home . But he was back again by ten o'clock , almost quite sober . He always made his own breakfast . Being a man who rose early and had plenty of time he did not , as some miners do , drag his wife out of bed at six o'clock . At five , sometimes earlier , he woke , got straight out of bed , and went downstairs . When she could not sleep , his wife lay waiting for this time , as for a period of peace . The only real rest seemed to be when he was out of the house .
