nine o'clock
Challis gave directions that the window which the Wonder had found to be his most convenient method of entry and exit should be kept open , except at night ; and a stool was placed under the sill inside the room , and a low bench was fixed outside to facilitate the child 's goings and comings . Also , a little path was made across the flower-bed . The Wonder gave no trouble . He arrived at nine o'clock every morning , Sunday included , and left at a quarter to six in the evening . On wet days he was provided with a waterproof which had evidently been made by his mother out of a larger garment . This he took off when he entered the room and left on the stool under the window . He was given a glass of milk and a plate of bread-and-butter at twelve o'clock ; and except for this he demanded and received no attention .
