six
o'clock
I have paid off my servants , the rent , and left everything in order ; and I am in possession of a sufficient sum of money in notes and gold to enable us to live for some months in peace on the Continent . Now comes the question of our meeting . I have ascertained that the night boat leaves Dover about eleven ; and in order to cross to Calais , on the way to Paris , we must take the boat train from Victoria . I think it will be safer to motor up to town rather than risk meeting any acquaintances in the train ; and a car will be waiting at the corner of Elm Lane at six o'clock . That will give us sufficient time to catch the train , and will be pleasanter than the other mode of travelling . With regard to your luggage , do not trouble to bring more than a dressing-case ; for it will be my pleasure and privilege in future to provide you with all you may desire . I have still much to do , so will bid you farewell until the precious moment which brings you to my side . ''
