Patrick Mulshaw is named as a person who was at some time present at the scene of Nicholls killing.Can anyone give a time he arrived there?

"Arrived at 5 in the afternoon, and remained until about five minutes to 6 the next morning" Times 18th Sept 1888.

Thanks for that.I believe those times were the beginning and ending of his shift.I should have been more direct and asked what time he joined the group standing at the place where Nicholls body lay.My error.
