21 April 1878 — Constantinople | |
Sunday. 21st [April 1878]. Easter Sunday. Mrs A. Hanson came to breakfast & we sang hymns together till church time. She went to the other church. Had tea in the garden & walked with Henry. Fournier called & asked us to dine with him on Saty at Therapia as he goes down Thursday & we Saturday. Did not go to church in the eveng as English Saïd P. called & sat & told us all abt the Ministerial change wh seems to have been caused by the other Saïd P. as Ahmed Vefyk said one or the other must leave so the Sultan dismissed them all– Embassy to dinner. Mr Bartlett older brother of our friend dined with us & we at once dubbed him the “Prig” and disliked him as he spouted Greek & snubbed us generally. | |
