quarter past one
Now I can tell you just where you 'll find those girls , and I 'm going to let you go . You take that path through the woods , and it 'll bring you into an open field , but you 'll still see a path . Keep right on till if you took another step you 'd fall about fifty feet and have to swim . There you 'll find a huddle of ledges and ravines and brave little firs that have hooked their roots into the rock somehow , and there you 'll find also a couple of girls who went down to write letters , and I know have n't written a word ; and do keep an eye on your watch and get them here by quarter past one . Things are so much nicer when they are hot and good , and Edna is no more to be trusted than if she was five . If she happened to get to watching a barnacle eat its dinner she 'd never once think of her own . '' Just at present Miss Derwent was certainly not thinking of dinner .
