midnight
Sylvia had been more particular than Leslie as to her luggage . Besides all her under-linen she had with her two pairs of clean sheets and pillow cases , some bath towels and soap , likewise a sponge and a yard of flannel -LRB- in case she lost any -RRB- a flask of brandy , some new potatoes and a tooth brush . Sylvia 's window opened into the lawn so it was easy to escape and once off the high road she and Leslie felt safe . Leslie and Sylvia having tramped until midnight found themselves weary and footsore at London . `` I ca n't afford very good lodgings '' said Leslie `` my money must last until I get employment . `` Where shall we go then ? '' said Sylvia .
