eleven o’clock
`` Galloway must have given Butterby his instructions , '' observed Hamish . `` He did n't , then , '' snapped Roland . `` Jenkins says he knows he did not , by the remarks Galloway made to him this morning . And Galloway has been away ever since eleven o'clock , we ca n't tell where . It is nobody but that evil , mischief-making Butterby , and I 'd give a crown out of my pocket to have a good duck at him in the river ! '' With regard to Mr. Galloway 's knowing nothing of the active proceedings taken against Arthur , Roland was right . Mr. Butterby had despatched a note to Mr. Galloway 's office at one o'clock , stating what he had done , and requesting him to be at the office at two , for the examination -- and the note had been lying there ever since .
