eleven o'clock
Mr. Jamieson called the hospital , while we crowded around him . And when there was no longer any doubt that it was Halsey , and that he would probably recover , we all laughed and cried together . I am sure I kissed Liddy , and I have had terrible moments since when I seem to remember kissing Mr. Jamieson , too , in the excitement . Anyhow , by eleven o'clock that night Gertrude was on her way to Johnsville , three hundred and eighty miles away , accompanied by Rosie . The domestic force was now down to Mary Anne and Liddy , with the under-gardener 's wife coming every day to help out . Fortunately , Warner and the detectives were keeping bachelor hall in the lodge . Out of deference to Liddy they washed their dishes once a day , and they concocted queer messes , according to their several abilities .
