a quarter past ten
You have just time to get your breakfast comfortably and dress yourselves properly before we leave for the church . So look sharp , '' was the greeting of Mr. Fabian , as he shook hands with his brother and his nephew . At ten o'clock the carriage containing Mr. Rockharrt , Mrs. Rothsay and Cadet Haught left the house for the church , which they entered by the central front door , from which they were marshaled up the center aisle to their seats in the right hand front pew . At a quarter past ten the bridegroom , with his best man , Clarence Rockharrt , followed in another very handsome carriage . They drove around to the side of the church , and passed in through the rector 's door to the vestry on the left of the chancel , where they awaited the arrival of the bride 's party , and through the open door of which they looked in upon the splendidly decorated and crowded church . An affluence of rare exotic flowers everywhere . The green-houses of the State capital and of three neighboring cities had been laid under contribution by Mr. Fabian , and had yielded up their sweetest treasures for this occasion .
