about eleven o'clock
Joseph Wilmot waited patiently enough , in all outward seeming , for the arrival of the steamer . Everybody was respectful to him now , paying deference to his altered guise , and he went where he liked without question or hindrance . There were several people waiting for passengers who were expected to arrive by the _ Electra _ , and the coming of the steamer was hailed by a feeble cheer from the bystanders grouped about the landing-place . The passengers began to come on shore at about eleven o'clock . There were a good many children and English nursemaids ; three or four military-looking men , dressed in loose garments of grey and nankeen colour ; several ladies , all more or less sunburnt ; a couple of ayahs ; three men-servants ; and an aristocratic-looking man of about fifty-five , dressed , unlike the rest of the travellers , in fine broadcloth , with a black-satin cravat , a gold pin , a carefully brushed hat , and varnished boots . His clothes , in fact , were very much of the same fashion as those which Joseph Wilmot had chosen for himself . This man was Henry Dunbar ; tall and broad-chested , with grey hair and moustache , and with a haughty smile upon his handsome face .
