"Four O'Clock" by Sonia Greene, with H.P. Lovecraft

It appears this was Sonia's work, with Lovecraft providing the idea for it, and Greene doing the actual writing.

An example of the uncommon short story style that is primarily about mood or atmosphere rather than plot or action. And it does a pretty good job of it, IMO.

'Mould' here is a British word for soft loose earth. Apparently it may have been an American word a hundred years ago? But certainly not any more.
