Wednesday 8th May
A great fuss after dinner, the B Police were after some Indians from the DW selling liquor & caught one then
tried to get another & stirred up the whole camp who caught MacLennan & kept him prisoner till I went over
to rescue him - sat up late discussing the affair with the Police & RAF who came over. The Indian officers
got wildly excited & phoned that he was being attacked.
Thursday 9th May
Police went out on march. Took Said Sabara to Jidda to put up the big loom - he had to leave before it was
really fixed. Quite bumpy when he went back.
Friday 10th May
At Jidda.
