seven o'clock
The queen declared to Madame Campan that she could not wait for it ; and that , as the order had been given in the presence of all her attendants , nobody would suspect anything if her own necessaire was emptied and cleaned , and sent off to Brussels ; and she gave positive orders that this should be done . Madame Campan ordered the wardrobe-woman , whose proper business it was , to have this order executed , as the archduchess could not wait so long as it would take to finish the new necessaire ; and she particularly desired that no perfume should be left hanging about any of the drawers which might be disagreeable to the archduchess . One evening in May , the queen called Madame Campan to help her to wrap up in cotton , and pack , her jewels , which she sent , by the hands of a person she could trust , to Brussels . They sat in a little room by themselves , with the door locked , till seven o'clock , when the queen had to go to cards . She told Madame Campan that there was no occasion to put by the diamonds ; they would be quite safe , as there was a sentinel under the window , and she herself should keep the key in her pocket . She appointed Madame Campan to be there early the next morning , to finish the packing ; till which time the jewels lay on the sofa , some in cotton , and some without . The same wardrobe-woman , Madame R -- , who was ordered to empty the necessaire , was clever about her business , and had been engaged in it for many years , and all the year round ; so that the queen , without having much to do with her , had become accustomed to see her , liked her way of discharging her business , and did not dream of distrusting her .
