Spent some time at the Fort, but not much to do up there.
Thursday 6th November
Dined with Jackson, the party was ourselves & Nesmithe, who as usual scarcely spoke. Rather a dull little
party. Sat in the bleak agency drawing room and conversed.
Friday 7th November
Greatly miss not being able to go to Jidda, its a pleasant break. To Awali to the Perfects baby's christening,
quite a nice show, service & then turkey sandwiches & champagne. Definitely all the better people from
Awali were there - we came home & the Bish stayed on to see people out there.
Went to a drive later & in the evening had some people in to meet the Bishops - about 30, rather a mixed lot
as we had the church council among others.
