three o'clock
On Wednesday evening and Thursday morning the newspapers of London alone published one hundred and thirteen columns of matter regarding the message and the pilgrimage of the Rev. George Stairs and the Rev. Arthur J. Reynolds . During the latter part of the week all London was agog over the Canadian preachers . As yet , very little had appeared in print regarding _ The Citizens _ . On Sunday morning at three o'clock John Crondall went into his bedroom to sleep , and I slept in the room he had set aside for me in his flat -- too tired out to undress . Even Crondall 's iron frame was weary that night , and he admitted to me before retiring from a table at which we had kept three typewriters busy till long after midnight , that he had reached his limit and must rest . `` I could n't stand another hour of it -- unless it were necessary , you know , '' was his way of putting it . By my persuasion he kept his bed during a good slice of Sunday morning , and lunched with me at Constance Grey 's flat .
