"of the tribe" The whole day was
spent by me shopping at
five O.M., we had our meal
down from a train.
27 The municipal Market on
the Strand I visited today
but it was a poor fruit market
I saw only one basket of durians
these gave out no offensive
Odor, One European tailor is
making an evening suit for
me of black broadcloth for 90 Rupee
+ a Cotton buff suit for 30 Rupee
which are prices quite as low
as native tailors. Barry or
Cab fares are very low I e., a
ride of 1/4 hour is 6 annas,
and an hour 1 Rupee. The
hotel charges are only 9 Rupees
a day including meals
Servants are cheap & numerous
