Fort. Office. We announced our verdict in the Sitrah muder case to the Court, the man never turned a
hair, they are always like that & appear to feel nothing. We ordered the woman in the case to remove

Abdulla came in for a few minutes. Slept after lunch, then went to tea at the Mission & then to dinner
with the Nixes and danced afterwards on their veranda, all the oil people were there, we left at one
o'clock, they were still dancing hard. Very nice out there & quite cool.
