1 August 1878 — Therapia | |
Thursday. 1st August [1878]. Messenger left; wrote letters. At 12 Ida & I set off in the steam launch for Candilli. Went straight to Mrs W. Hanson and lunched with her. Afterwards we walked up the hill to Mrs Henry’s whom we found in. It was the first time I had seen her since her child was drowned. She looked dreadfully sad & made me quite miserable. As a storm threatened we did not stay long & it began to rain before we got quite down to the boat & as soon as we set off the storm came down tremendously and the lightening was very vivid & the rain so thick we could hardly see an inch before us. We got home abt 5.30. Capt. Stopford came to tea. | |
