Office all the morning, saw various people. The Bishop went to see the school with Ahmed Omran. Wrote a
long letter about Zubara case for Agency & sent it to HH to approve, he has gone out hunting.
Went
A cocktail party at the Agency, a tiresome affair as usual, then to dinner with the Snows, with the Bishop.
Felt really very tired & glad to get to bed. Somehow there has been a lot to do lately & having so many
people to stay in the house is exhausting.
Friday 14th March
A lazy day, got up very late & spent most of the morning in the garden, M sat there. The Bishop went to see
R Brown & BT spent the day out with his nephew. Wilson came to lunch & tea & he & the Bish left in the
evening. RB promised to recommend financial support for a chaplain & after lunch we we discussed ways &
means & how much to pay. Wilson told us a lot of very funny stories about clerics.
