14 February 1878 — Constantinople | |
Thursday. 14th [February 1878]. Spent the day cutting out & arranging things for Compassionate Fund. Made Jerry clean out the work room. Henry got a letter from the Palace at 5 this morng to say the Fleet had passed the Dardanelles but only the Alexandra had got on shore. Henry was very busy all day. It snowed hard the whole day. Miss Maynard called on me also Mrs Whitaker & Mrs Honischer who came to sniff for news but I knew none to give them. Wrote some letters before dinner. The de Wintons and Mr Rawson dined with us. Played billiards in the evening. | |
