I left Moor House at three o'clock p.m., and soon after four I stood at the foot of the sign-post of Whitcross, waiting the arrival of the coach which was to take me to distant Thornfield.
Je quittai Moor-House vers trois heures, et, un peu après quatre heures, j'étais devant le poteau de Whitcross, attendant la voiture qui devait me mener à Thornfield.
