nine o'clock
`` There will be no dressing . All I need do is appear neat . '' We sat there and talked it over , deciding exactly our course of action . At nine o'clock I left her , hunted up the nearest bank and got change for my bill . Then I gave her the amount asked , and we separated , to meet again late that afternoon at the depot . I felt no doubt as to her being there on time . My day was a busy one , as I had to visit my boarding house , buy needful clothing , and arrange for transportation .
