We we can't afford a maid." She flushed at his use of "we." Nevertheless, what he said was true enough. That sum was a mere pittance. Fate had her in a tight grip. "Be sure to bring your passport," he reminded her. "It is ten-thirty. I 'll be here at eleven."
The average "overhead" in British mills was one hundred and thirty per cent., and Dell knew. The young man laughed hysterically, triumphantly, but the sound was more like a tearful hiccough. To-morrow at ten-thirty! It was nearly over. He would be ready. As he lolled back inertly upon the cushions he mused dreamily that he had done well.
"Shall you be at Bow Street tomorrow morning?" asked Breton as he moved to the door. "It's to be at ten-thirty." "No, I shan't!" replied Spargo. "It'll only be a remand, and I know already just as much as I should hear there. I've got something much more important to do.
For a moment he felt as though he could not look at them in the presence of his wife. He glanced quickly at the envelopes. There was nothing there from Falk. His heart gave a little clap of relief. "At any rate, he hasn't written," he said. "He can't be far away." "There's another post at ten-thirty," she answered. He was angry with her for that. How like her!
"Translate it when you come back," suggested Jerry. "I see myself doing it. It is half-past seven now. We'll be back here about ten minutes before the ten-thirty bell. That will give me a lot of time to translate a hundred lines. Now won't it?" "Oh, come along.

David Courtlaw crossed the floor of the dingy little sitting-room with outstretched hands. "You cannot say that you did not expect me," he answered. "I got Sydney's telegram at ten o'clock, and caught the ten-thirty from the Gare du Nord." "It is very nice of you," Anna said softly. "Rubbish!" he answered. "I could not have stayed in Paris and waited for news. Tell me exactly what has happened.
You can sit in some joint all night if you have a nickel, but if you haven't you can do the next best thing in line, and that is "carry the banner." Think of walking the streets all night and being obliged to keep moving! The man took a fifty-cent piece out of his pocket, held it in his hand, and asked me if I would meet him at the Broome Street Tabernacle the next morning at ten-thirty.
Inelegant, but expressive of his feelings. But Wallie only said, "You wait. You'll see." Sid Hahn did see. He saw next day. Wallie woke him out of a sound sleep so that he might see. It was ten-thirty A.M. so that his peevishness was unwarranted. Then and there he completed the negotiations which Wallie had begun. Hahn was all for taking the first train out, but Wallie was firm.
"Seems like what?" Mr. Wrenn insisted. "Oh nothing.... My, you'll have to get up awful early Sunday morning if you'd like to go with me. My church starts at ten-thirty." "Oh, I'd get up at five to go with you." "Stupid! Now you're just trying to jolly me; you are; because you men aren't as fond of church as all that, I know you aren't.
"Very well, I'll trust you all to prepare tomorrow's lessons without exchanging an unnecessary word, and at eight o'clock I'll ring my bell, and then you must all put on extra warm wraps and go out on the piazza to look at the moon. I shall not expect you to come in till ten-thirty."
