one o'clock
Doctor Bryerly was watching my countenance as I spoke , with a sharp and anxious eye ; and then he looked down , and read the pattern of the carpet like bad news , for a while , and looking again in my face , askance , he said -- ` He was very near joining _ us _ -- on the point . He got into correspondence with Henry Voerst , one of our best men . They call us Swedenborgians , you know ; but I dare say that wo n't go much further , now . I suppose , Miss Ruthyn , one o'clock would be a good hour , and I am sure , under the circumstances , the gentlemen will make a point of attending . ' ` Yes , Dr. Bryerly , the notes shall be sent , and my cousin , Lady Knollys , would I am sure attend with me while the will is being read -- there would be no objection to her presence ? ' ` None in the world . I ca n't be quite sure who are joined with me as executors .
