Thurs,
Oct. 14
I was up at about my usual
time and had breakfast with the
others. Walked down to the wharf
and looked over the Straits Steam
Ship Co's Selanger; then back to the
hotel and then down the beach
collecting shells and stopped
at the hospital to say good-bye
to Miss Biddle. Went to the office
and paid for my ticket to Jeddah
£2.20 and then home for tiffin.
Took a little nap and
then packed up; went over to
Saleh's and had some cream
with him and Rev. Gilmaner
and at five went down to
"Selanger" with my luggage;
called to see Mrs. Bryant but he
was out.
Came back to the hotel for
dinner and at 8, went aboard
my boat and we sailed
for Jeddah at mine. I did a
little unpacking and sat
up on deck for a time. It is
a beautiful night, with our
palanquin. Retired at 10.
