one o'clock
It was the real name of Silly Billy . The boy had some turn for carving , but was quite uncultivated : Henry took him into his employ , fed him , and made free with his name . With all this he found time to get a key made to fit the lock of Cairnhope old Church . At one o'clock on Thursday morning he came to Cheetham 's works , and scratched at the gate . A big workman opened it . It turned out to be Cheetham himself , in a moleskin suit , and a long beard . The forge on wheels was all ready , also a cart containing anvil , bellows , hammers , pincers , leathern buckets , and a quantity of steel laths .
