four o'clock
Ransome prevailed on Little to go home , change his wet clothes and lie down for an hour or two . He consented , but first gave Ransome an order to lay out a thousand pounds , at his expense , in relief of the sufferers . Then he went home , sent a message to Raby Hall , that he was all right , took off his clothes , rolled exhausted into bed , and slept till the afternoon . At four o'clock he rose , got into a hansom , and drove up to Woodbine Villa , the happiest man in England . He inquired for Miss Carden . The man said he believed she was not up , but would inquire . `` Do , '' said Little .
