six o'clock
Grandma said it was silly for two children to act that a way , or at least for Mitch to act that a way . Zueline war n't doin ' anything except just to be Zueline to Mitch -- she was n't as much in love with Mitch as he was with her . Then grandpa came in and said we 'd all go to Bobtown the next day , that his spring wagon was done and we 'd go over and get it . It was an awful ways , eighteen miles at least , and we 'd have to start by six o'clock in order to get there and get back , and take a lunch to eat on the way . I suppose I had heard as much about Bobtown as any place in the world , but never seen it . It was just in a straight line from the porch at grandpa 's , past Spotty Milt Stith 's place , and just in the place between the woods and where the sky came down beyond . So the next mornin ' we was off -- grandpa and ma settin ' in the front seat of the carriage ; and me , grandma and Myrtle in the back seat .
