I was wondering why, in Ch. 5, Mary is telling Anne that she has been alone all morning, and it is almost one o'clock;

"Oh! Charles is out shooting. I have not seen him since seven o'clock. He would go, though I told him how ill I was. He said he should not stay out long; but he has never come back, and now it is almost one. I assure you, I have not seen a soul this whole long morning."

A few paragraphs down, Anne says;

"You will see them yet, perhaps, before the morning is gone. It is early."
