eleven o'clock
* The Ivy Summer-house -LRB- or Ivy Bower , as it was sometimes called in the family -RRB- was a place , that from a girl , this young lady delighted in . She used , in the summer months , frequently to sit and work , and read , and write , and draw , and -LRB- when permitted -RRB- to breakfast , and dine , and sometimes to sup , in it ; especially when Miss Howe , who had an equal liking to it , was her visiter and guest . She describes it , in another letter -LRB- which appears not -RRB- as ` pointing to a pretty variegated landscape of wood , water , and hilly country ; which had pleased her so much , that she had drawn it ; the piece hanging up , in her parlous , among some of her other drawings . ' I added , by way of postscript , ` That their suspicions seeming to increase , I advise him to contrive to send or some to the usual place , as frequently as possible , in the interval of time till Monday morning ten or eleven o'clock ; as something may possibly happen to make me alter my mind . ' O my dear Miss Howe ! -- what a sad , sad thing is the necessity , forced upon me , for all this preparation and contrivance ! -- But it is now too late !
