ten o'clock
I hauled in with a whine of rubber and brakes , and sat there trying to reason out my next move by logic . Do I turn with the missing spoke , or do I turn with the one that is not missing ? Memory came to my aid . The `` ten o'clock '' spoke had been missing back there near the Harrison farm . The Harrisons had lived on the left side of the highway . One follows the missing spoke . Here the `` two o'clock '' spoke was missing , so I turned to the right along the crossroad until I came to another sign that was complete .
