three o'clock
`` Oh , come in , Mrs. Bauer ! I 'm glad to see you . You 'll help me cheer poor Alfred up a bit . Not but what he ought to be happy now -- for what d'you think happened at three o'clock to-day ? Why , the Dean himself came along and left a beautiful letter with us -- an Address , _ he _ called it . '' She was walking down the passage as she spoke , and when she opened the parlour door she called out cheerfully , `` Here 's Mrs. Bauer come to see us ! I tell her she 'll have to help cheer you up a bit . ''
