  Very sacred by the Natives. I forgot

  to state that the service to day was

  taken by the Ven Archdeacon Carrey who

  was born & is a Native of Carlisle.

  to Day as of corse  India & Burma are

  considered such cold country; we were

  given a wool coat, a wool shirt. & a

  extra pair of socks to keep us warm

  what we are going to do with them we

  don’t very well know.

  Mon Dec 21 – 1914

  A very wet day rained heavy all day, had

  a lecture during the morning. Still no

  news from England. Everything went wrong

  to day. Got into trouble all round, quarreled

  with everybody, went down into village

  got wet through, had a good feed of

  Ham & eggs in one of the Native Hotels

  smoked two cigars, had a cab home

  & went to bed quite satisfied with

  myself.
