midnight
He lived alone in his house in Saville Row , where none ever entered . A single servant sufficed to serve him . He breakfasted and dined at the club , at hours mathematically fixed , in the same room , at the same table , never taking his meals with other members , much less bringing a guest with him . He went home at exactly midnight , only to retire at once to bed . He never used the cosy chambers which the Reform provides for its favored members . He passed ten hours out of the twenty-four in Saville Row , either in sleeping or making his toilet . When he chose to take a walk it was with a regular step in the entrance hall with its mosaic flooring , or in the circular gallery with its dome supported by twenty red Ionic columns , and illumined by blue painted windows .
