22 October 1878 — Therapia | |
Tuesday. 22nd [October 1878]. Ahmed Vefyk was tired & anxious to return home so we sent him off in the 3 oared caique. Sent the steam cutter to fetch Mme Hilmy P. She came abt 1 o’cl: she & I had lunch alone in the drawing room but I found that she would have gone to lunch as we do. Afterwards I took her out in the garden & we sat and watched the lawn tennis & did not put on a yashmak altho’ Henry & the secys were there. She left at abt 4 o’cl: we sent her in the caique. I played tennis with Henry for a short time & then came in & read till dinner. Genl & Lady Dickson dined with us. Ct Pisani returned to Pera today. | |
