four o'clock
Saturday afternoon
There were no telephones in the country , hence no way of informing the waiting _ Flora _ that the _ Willis _ was four days late , but coming . When the _ W.H. Willis _ pulled into White Horse , it was learned that the _ Flora _ had waited three days over the limit , and had departed only a few hours before . Also , it was learned that she would tie up at Tagish Post till nine o'clock , Sunday morning . It was then four o'clock Saturday afternoon . The pilgrims called a meeting . On board was a large Peterborough canoe , consigned to the police post at the head of Lake Bennett . They agreed to be responsible for it and to deliver it .
