Friday 23rd May
Went to Jidda, spent the day in the sea and coursing rabbits but with only one dog it is hopeless & we
caught none though we chased lots.
A party at Lipps for Mrs Kennedy, mostly oil.
Saturday 24th May
Agency for some time, discussed Vallance and other matters.
Began digging trenches along the edge of the town opposite the fort.
Rode down to see Mrs Kennedy off but just missed her, others were late too.
Cocktail party given at Awali by Howitt, quite a pleasant party.
Sunday 25th May
Sh Mohd came in. Office.
Saw Vallance & told him about not returning next term, naturally very upset.
