Monday [7 March]
Didnt do much in the morning. Tennis at Mission. Capt Currie, Appleton, Holmes & Pickering came to dinner, the two sailors
were decidedly tight. Played Bridge. Asked to dinner on the Lupin on Thursday.
Tuesday [8 March]
Went over to Agency in morning & saw Barrett about sea wall. Didnt go to office before breakfast as very sleepy after two
late nights. Shaikh Mohamed came to call on me. I dont care for him, a mean little man & too much education. He has been
staying in Calcutta. Went a walk after lunch & then to the Spences for tea & Bridge. At last we have finished the sea road
bridge question, Spence climbed down & said he would be satisfied with various other arrangements instead of the bridge.
Glad its finally settled. Parke to dinner.
