eleven o'clock
Sir Lucius was amazed and delighted , hopeful of success . He thoroughly approved Jimmie 's plan , and gave him a brief note of introduction to the Vicar of Dunwold . `` I wish I could go with you , '' he said ; `` but , unfortunately , I have two important engagements in town to-morrow . '' The interview was a long one , and it was eleven o'clock when Jimmie left the hotel . He went straight home to bed , and an early hour the next morning found him gliding out of Victoria station in a South Coast train . * * * * * On the previous night , while Jimmie and Sir Lucius were dining at Morley 's , Victor Nevill emerged from his rooms in Jermyn street , and walked briskly to Piccadilly Circus . He looked quite unlike the spruce young man of fashion who was wont to disport himself in the West End at this hour , for he wore tweeds , a soft hat , and a rather shabby overcoat .
