Spent some time looking round to try & find out where mosquitoes are coming from, discovered some pits
full of water & simply stiff with mosquitoes. Ordered a good cleaning up & everything to be doused with
oil. There is a lot of fever among the Police due to mosquitoes. Office & Court. Russell & Davies called
about land. Spent morning partly in Court & part in office. Gardened after lunch & then we went a drive to
Daly gap to show M's mother the country. She likes it all very much. This morning they went down the
bazaar. After tea went & played bridge at Davies' house.Hainngi & Williams were there en route to the
mainland. Quite good Bridge, about twenty people were there, mostly oil. Very pleasant weather, chilly in
evening & just right in the daytime.
