21 September 1878 — Therapia | |
Saturday. 21st September [1878]. The steam cutter went down to bring up Lady Dickson & May Boyd. The latter went to Mrs W. Hansons till Monday as we cannot take her in. I had my Turkish lesson. We lunched at 1. Musurus Pasha came to call & lunched with us. Directly after Henry & all the party excepting me went away in the Salamis. The Admiral to return to the “Alexandra.” The young people to go to a cricket match at Kadi-keui & Henry, the Burrs & Lady Hornby to go to the Scutari burying ground. At 3½ I went out in the carriage to pay visits. Went to Buyukdéré but found no one at home. As I was looking for Mme Moussafer Bey’s she drove by in a pony carriage & stopped to tell me she had been twice to see me &c. I told her I was in the act of looking for her house but I would return another day. I then drove to Yeni-keui to call on Mme Fernandez who was out so I came in & had tea & waited for fishing time. Virginia P. came to say her father wd fetch me so I dressed and then later she came to say he could not get a caique so I settled to read. A few minutes after she fetched me in the found caique & we went out but caught nothing & when we saw the Salamis come in we did the same. | |
