About
two o'clock
Friar and I get on two mule as soon as it quite dark . He make me carry all tousand dollars -- and we ride out of town . We go up mountain and mountain , but the moon get up shine and we go on cheek by jowl -- he nebber say one word , and I nebber say one word , 'cause I no speak his lingo , and he no understand my English . About two o'clock in de morning , we stop at a house and stay dere till eight o'clock , and den we go on again all next day , up all mountain , only stop once , eat a bit bread and drink lilly wine . Second night come on , and den we stop again , and people bow very low to him , and woman bring in rabbit for make supper . I go in the kitchen , woman make stew smell very nice , so I nod my head , and I say very good , and she make a face , and throw on table black loaf of bread and garlic , and make sign dat for my supper ; good enough for black fellow , and dat rabbit stew for friar . Den I say to myself , stop a little ; suppose friar hab all de rabbit , I tink I give him a lilly powder . ''
