Saturday [6th July]
Went to see Cole in the morning who goes off again today to Qattar but by air for a change. Then office
& court. I find that young Abdulla is very definitely better than Sulman on the court, he belongs to the
younger generation & has not got the old feudal ideas of the older Shaikhs, he is better educated & more
logical & appreciates rules & regulations. I much prefer working with him than with Sulman. Played
golf in the evening - very badly - afterwards sat & talked to the doctor & Skrimshire on the last hole.
Went up to the Fort after dinner & interrogated some of the Hedd murder case people. We have now got
the whole affair taped out & know who did it, but it has taken a very long time. I tried to get the girl's
mother to admit that she knew all about it but she would not. We of course know that she knew.
