four o’clock
Sha n't I call a doctor ? '' `` Not a bit of it . I 'll sleep it off and be as lively as a cricket in the morning . '' At four o'clock I told him to carry some hot water and lemons to my room ; bade him an emphatic good night and locked the door as he left . Then I packed my evening clothes in a suit-case . I threw the bag and a heavy ulster from a window , swung myself out upon the limb of a big maple and let it bend under me to its sharpest curve and then dropped lightly to the ground . I passed the gate and struck off toward the village with a joyful sense of freedom .
