C. Koford 33 Journal March 22, 1951 Arequipa, Peru. Apparently holiday (before Easter Sunday), & most places closed. Inquired for mail at Conces (more). Shopped. Worked on cardor report. Wrote letter. Talked with hotel guests. Visited Quinta Batter & talked with Jimmy Thompson (P?), ex-Stanford, who had been in Peru 3 years & had been to school, & taught at Univ. of San Marcos (for Americans tuition was light; the professors after were absent). At Quinto Bater heard that one could drive up to Leguna Saliva (toward Areco), see flamingos & other birds, & return by mid-afternoon. P. Batter had several little garden houses which seemed comfortable. A black & white, shorn llama tried to take on lawn of the hotel. It could bite quite bad. Liked to have neck scratched. All very short hair but did not seem to make grounds bare. Many swallows flying about hotel in evenings. Overcast with cumulo-stratus clouds much of day. March 23, 1951. Another holiday (Friday before Easter). Visited home of Arthur Williams, 318 Morel, but he was not in. Called on Eduardo Nicholson & found out that Brother Carlos (whom I wanted to see) was at fjera or honeymoon. Worked on Calif. Cardor manuscript. Overspent most of the day. Next never called. Flies or alaudine insects nearly absent from Arequipa it seems. March 24, 1951. Shopped. Worked on cardor MS. Saturday. Mr. Arthur Williams called & invited me to lunch. I dined with him & Mrs. W. at their fancy home - a reconstructed old adobe & stone building with thick walls, large patio, etc. The Williams were very willing to give me advice in every way they could. Mrs. W. did most of the talking. They recommended Dr. Bustamante Rivero as a physician here (tho for anything out of the ordinary one went to Lima), and Salazar as a baby doctor. At Peru they recommended Dr. Rivera del Mar.
