14 January 1878 — Constantinople | |
Monday. 14th January [1878]. Henry went off to the Porte directly after breakfast– Arthur went to the Bazaars with Giovanni. Mrs de Winton went to the station and came back with a horrible account of the fearful rush of refugees & how there had been a railway accident and there were many killed & wounded. We begged Arthur to go with Giovanni to see if he could help. He rushed off with our servant [illegible word] & G. & did not come in till abt 11 bringing the Major & Leveson Gower who had been there all day. We had no reception having put it off on account of the death of the King of Italy. | |
