about six o'clock in the evening
I expect to reach home about six o'clock in the evening . When will you get to your place , Edith ? '' `` A little later than you , '' replied Edith , `` for it is farther away , but father and mother have promised to come and meet me at Canterbury . I shall reach Canterbury about six o'clock in the evening . We have ten miles to drive then , so I do n't suppose I shall be home till half-past seven . The boys are going to make a bonfire ; there is to be no end of fun -- there always is when I come home for the summer holidays . '' Kitty gave a faint sigh and there came a cruel pang at her heart .
