midnight
Among other things to be noted with relief the doctor counted the fact that there were no more letters from Florence . Apparently that flame which had blazed up rather brightly at first had died down as a good many others had . Doctor Holiday was particularly glad in this case . He had not liked the idea of his nephew 's running around with a girl who would be willing to go `` joy-riding '' with him after midnight , and still less had he liked the idea of his nephew 's issuing such invitations to any kind of girl . Youth was youth and he had never kept a very tight rein on any of Ned 's children , believing he could trust them to run straight in the main . Still there were things one drew the line at for a Holiday . Tony was dressing for dinner on her first evening at Crest House .
