Nine o'clock
Men rarely do talk much about anything which seems to them very serious , and I may candidly say that I had never felt anything in my life to be much more serious than that impending interview with Mr. Harringford . That he would come we never doubted for a moment , and we were right . As soon as it was possible for him to appoint an interview , Mr. Harringford did so . `` Nine o'clock on to-morrow -LRB- Thursday -RRB- evening , '' was the hour he named , apologizing at the same time for being unable to call at an earlier period of the day . `` Humph ! '' said Munro , turning the note over . `` You will receive him in the library , of course , Hal ? ''
