(3) At noon we had a very heavy downpour rain accompanied with violent thunder lightning and heavy squally wind. The storm lasted about 1 hour violently & there a drizzle much of the day. This is the first real rain storm I have witnessed here. I spent the day delving over books on German & miss China in the Raffles Library, Dr. Harnisch has issued a special catalogue on the Chinese books in the library. I found many new books not previously known to me German or part of it.
