8 January 1903 — Ca’ Capello, Venice | |
Thursday. 8th [January 1903]. Packed & arranged things. Was just going out at 12 when a citation was served upon me to appear at 12.30 before the Judge at the Law Courts. I ran to Guggenheim to ask him what I should do. He said there was no help for it & I must go & advised me to ask Malagola to accompany me as he was to be with me at 1.30. I went to see Bss Reinelt to bid her goodbye & she advised me to go to the Prefect so I walked on there & found him & his wife just finishing lunch. He came in with the baby in his arms—& a happy trio they looked. He said he would find out about the judge & let me know & I need not go till I heard from him—then I ran home to lunch & before I had finished Malagola came– Then arrived Marchese Bentivoglio & his little girl & a relation a Baron Daguerre—also the Ingeniere Triconie for last instructions– At 3 came a letter to say I was let off going to the Tribunal as it was only abt a clock stolen from the Institute & I was to give some other name—so I sent Mr Harston’s. By 3.30 the visitors were gone & Nela & I went out. I went to the Stabto Venezia Murano & then to bid Mr Eden goodbye & on home & had lots of visitors to bid me goodbye—till 7—when I was tired up. Packed up bead necklaces of wh we have made over 60 to take away & sold 300 fcs worth in aid of our hospital & got to bed late– | |
