midnight
I -- told his landlady to-night that he would n't need the room again . I hope she has n't rented it to somebody else . '' We cheered him as best we could , and I suggested that we go to Baltimore the next day and try to find the real Sullivan through his wife . He left sometime after midnight , and Richey and I were alone . He drew a chair near the lamp and lighted a cigarette , and for a time we were silent . I was in the shadow , and I sat back and watched him . It was not surprising , I thought , that she cared for him : women had always loved him , perhaps because he always loved them .
