about seven o'clock
I had left it on the porch and had totally forgotten it , but here it was upon a table , where it had been placed , no doubt , by the thoughtful Brownster . I opened it and took out the box of capsules . I did not feel that I had taken cold in the night air ; this was not a time to protect myself against morning mists ; but still I thought it would be well for me to swallow a capsule , and I did so . The next morning I awoke about seven o'clock . My clothes , neatly brushed and folded , were on a chair near the bed , with my brightly-blackened shoes near by . I rose , quickly dressed myself , and went forth into the morning air . I met no one in the house , and the hall door was open .
