23 October 1878 — Therapia | |
Wednesday. 23rd [October 1878]. Mrs Willie Hanson arrived to spend the day & dine & sleep here. May went out to the paper chase directly after luncheon. I & Henry played tennis. Willie Hanson joined us. Came in & sang to Mrs Willie. Sir Alfred, Mr Smijth & Capt. Wingfield dined with us. Was made rather late for dinner by Jerry’s naughtiness—running away & hiding under his bed—but I had to leave him to Hill. In the evening we went over to the “Coal hole” as we call the secretaries house & had singing there till past 11. Mr Cartwright was there for the last time as he starts tomorrow for Philippopolis with Sir H. Wolff & Lord Donoughmore was also there & goes tomorrow. | |
