12 June 1878 — Therapia | |
Wednesday. 12th [June 1878]. At 2 o’clock Princess Nazlie came to see me. The messenger left; in the morng I wrote for Henry– The Princess stayed with me till after 5– Just as she was leaving a caique arrived from the Sultan with the birds he promised me viz, a grey Polly, a white cockatoo & 3 cages with canaries & small birds. Then came an ADC on horseback from the Sultan & presently up dashed an 8 oared caique with a large carpet sent me also from H.M. The parrot & cockatoo both talk. | |
