about three o'clock
If I was in my bed this blessed minute I 'd be very comfortable , which I 'm very far from bein ' here with this mosquito aimin ' just over my slap each time ; an ' then , too , I 'd be alone , an ' no matter how hard I may try to make myself look upon bein ' with you as the same thing as bein ' alone , it is n't the same thing an ' you ca n't in conscience deny _ that _ , no matter how hard you may sit without movin ' . '' Mrs. Lathrop made no reply to this frank comment on her liveliness , and after a short pause , Miss Clegg sighed heavily a second time , and continued : `` It 's been a full day , a awful full day . In the first place the rooster was woke by accident last night an ' he up an ' woke me . He must of woke me about three o'clock as near as I can figure it out now , but I supposed when I was woke as of course it was five so I got right up an ' went in an ' woke Elijah . Elijah told me last week as he did n't believe he 'd ever seen the sun rise an ' I was just enough out of sorts to think as to-day would be a good time for him to begin to turn over a new leaf as far as the sunrise was concerned . I must say he was n't very spry about the leaf , for all he did was to turn himself over at first , but I opened his window an ' banged the blinds three or four times an ' in the end he got woke up without really knowin ' just what had woke him . We had breakfast with a candle , an ' then Elijah was so tired lookin ' out for the sunrise that he looked in at his watch an ' see as it was only quarter to four then .
