Tuesday [6 September]
Biladya meeting at Muharraq. Got a good deal of work done. Sh Abdulla gets a move on with the meetings. Holding
meetings in a different room, close to the sea. Called on the Kadi Seyed Ednan. Stayed a long time discussing the idea of a

been in use for hundreds of years. He is a very pleasant intelligent little man.
