afternoon, in the wash house sat on
an upturned bucket, having my hair
cut by the orderly, who acts as amateur
hairdresser to the compound. He made
a very good job of it too - practically

protection for my watch-wristlet finally
broke off the other day (it had been strained
for some weeks past), but I think it
will be alright now until I can get
another. It was very sad about the
girl getting drowned at Cayton, but
I alwa...there is a tear in the paper here knew the bay was treacherous
