half past three
The coffee was cold , it is true , but it was very good , and it made an excellent ending to the meal . They made the supper last as long as possible , in order to occupy the time . It was three o'clock before it was finished and the papers cleared away . At half past three , Rollo , in looking out at the window , saw a sort of bank by the side of the road ; and on observing attentively , he perceived that there was a curve in the road itself , before them . `` Uncle George , '' said he , `` we have got off the marshes ! '' `` I verily believe we have , '' said Mr. George . `` So now we may go to sleep , '' said Rollo .
