six in the morning
At four in the morning , while it was still dark , Tom was up again . He sat at the desk , going over the work once more until half past five o'clock . Then he called Harry and Howe , and the trio of chiefs had a hurried breakfast together . At six in the morning Mr. Newnham appeared , just in time to find Tom and Harry getting into saddle . `` Not going to stay behind and sit in an easy chair this morning , Reade ? '' called the president . `` Not this , or any other morning , sir , '' Tom replied .
