ten o’clock
I could well imagine what the old men down at the drug-store would do with such a theme . While grandmother was trying to make me comfortable , grandfather went to the depot and learned that Wick Cutter had come home on the night express from the east , and had left again on the six o'clock train for Denver that morning . The agent said his face was striped with court-plaster , and he carried his left hand in a sling . He looked so used up , that the agent asked him what had happened to him since ten o'clock the night before ; whereat Cutter began to swear at him and said he would have him discharged for incivility . That afternoon , while I was asleep , Ántonia took grandmother with her , and went over to the Cutters ' to pack her trunk . They found the place locked up , and they had to break the window to get into Ántonia 's bedroom . There everything was in shocking disorder .
