ten o'clock
With a cold-chisel I cut long points in what would be the upper part of the crown , and when I had filed these up a little , the crown looked quite nobby . We finished it by punching a lot of holes in the front part , making them in the form of stars and circles . With something red behind these , the effect would be prodigious . At ten o'clock , sharp , the next morning , we were all at the queen 's house . Mrs. Chipperton was with us , for she wished very much to see the ceremony . I think Mr. Chipperton would have been along , but a gentleman took him out in his yacht that morning , and I must admit that we all breathed a little bit freer without him . There was a pretty fair crowd sitting around in the front yard when we reached the house , and before long a good many more people came to see what was going on .
