seven o'clock
Friday
I declare , it seemed as if she done some things for me just for the sake o ' doin ' 'em -- she was that kind . Timothy an ' Silas would n't hev any dinner , -- it was a boiled piece , too , -- bein ' as dinners o ' their own was gettin ' cold . But they set up against the edge o ' the room so 's we could be eatin ' on . '' ` Elspie , ' says Timothy , ` you must be ready to go sharp seven o'clock Friday mornin ' . ' '' ` Go where ? ' says Elspie . She hed on a black-an ' - white stripe o ' mine , an ' her cheeks were some pink from standin ' over the cook stove , an ' she looked rill pretty .
