six
o'clock
`` It isna worth while tellin ' ye . God alone understands quarrelsome women , but if you go to the kippering-shed , there will be trouble -- and trouble for me , Christine -- for Jessy is in wi ' them . '' `` I will do as you tell me , Norman . Hae the fish ready at six o'clock . '' Then Norman went away , and Christine put back in its place the kippering suit , and took out her very prettiest selling suit . For her mourning dress touched only her domestic and social life , her business had its own dress , and the fisher dress was part of the business . She had no sense of humiliation in assuming it , nor yet in the selling of the fish .
