about one
in the morning
I asked , with some dim recollection of the circumstances . `` Why , Prescott 's death . He came to Abercrombie Place one night , and stayed very late . No one knows exactly when he left , but about one in the morning a fellow who knew him met him walking rapidly in the direction of the Queen 's Park . He bade him good night , but Prescott hurried on without heeding him , and that was the last time he was ever seen alive . Three days afterwards his body was found floating in St. Margaret 's Loch , under St. Anthony 's Chapel . No one could ever understand it , but of course the verdict brought it in as temporary insanity . ''
