ten o’clock
We woke up the boy then . It did not matter whether he shaved or not ; but at his age it is a serious thing to miss a chance of food . About midday we arrived at a large town . Thompson learned from the R.T.O. who inhabited the railway station there that we could not get a train to take us any further till ten o'clock that night . He said again that was war , what the French call _ guerre _ , but he seemed quite pleased at the prospect of the wait . He spoke of looking for a proper meal and a Turkish bath . The bath we did not succeed in getting ; but we had an excellent luncheon : omelette , fried fish , some kind of stewed meat and a bottle of red wine .
