1935

Fort, kit inspection of leftovers from last one. Office, court, seems to be a rush of work just now. Siffrah
Haghima... came in afternoon about her account with old Ayesha, the Shaikha is behaving abominately
over it & the money is quite a large sum. Went to Fort & spent a long time talking to people in Hedd
case, the small girl, sister of the murdered one, now admits the whole thing & says she was told to say
something different. It is interesting. Dinner party SNO,Nixs, Phillips, Davies & Smith. Played Bridge,
quite a successful dinner party, SNO doesn't know much about Bridge but we got him to play contract.
Quite a good dinner & quite lively. Davies is going to London for a short trip & seems very pleased and
excited about it.
