19 March 1880 — Constantinople | |
Friday. 19th March [1880]. I had a domestic morning interviewing laundry maids &c. Mr Washington came to see me abt church matters. I set to work with Hill to cut out the pattern of a dressing gown from a fashion book wh took us some time as we made the gown in calico & tryed it on. After lunch Mr Smijth came to say goodbye as he is starting for England. Alice went to the church practice and I had visits from Dr Collins & Mr Philips officers of the Antelope & Mr Hobart & Ct Corti bringing a young Marquis Porcinari his new secy to introduce. It snowed hard all day & only cleared towards evening. Mr Nicolson & Mr Bland dined with us. Dominos. | |
