Fort. I am taking on another section of Police & consequently every day my office is surrounded by men asking for
jobs, it is hard having to send so many away. Court in the morning. Shaikh Mohammed came in as he has some cases.
I always dislike his appearances in Court as he sits there & shrieks at the unfortunate tenants who owe him money.
Boone from the Jebel came to see me about the Muharraq bridge. Sh Abdulla came round to the Fort in the morning to
ask about the Barbar affair, all are worried at this outbreak of violence. Motored in the afternoon & then paid a call on
Dr & Mrs Holmes. DG came in but we outstayed him.
