Fort. Kit inspection, a very busy morning in the office. Shaikh Sulman came in to cadge for money as
usual and various other people. Had the dud pearl man in and the youth here who is mixed up with him, a
relation of Sh Abdulla's wife and a protege of Sh Mohammed's, who always seems to get mixed up with
dud pearls. We sent the two he had sold to Bombay for testing & detained him in jail. Annual Report
finally finished - very late but I have not had time before. Cooler day, a shamaal blowing but as usual
went off in the evening.. Played golf, played quite well & then went into the doctors, he was out on a
foursome with 3 oil camp men, some of the Shoreham came in to see him while I was there.
