Fri 28. [28 June 1907] A long and rather tiresome day. Fattuh went off
at 3 AM to see about transport. I measured various chapels and
tombs and drew them out, but it was all over at 10.30. Then I read
Sarre till lunch after which I slept for an hour, drew out mouldings and
finished Sarre and took photographs at various hours all day to catch
the light. At 3 rode up to take a big picture of the crater but it will not be
very successful as the clouds blew up just at the moment. We had a
few drops of rain later and a little thunder. Much cooler today.
Packed till dinner and then read an old Spec contentedly. I shall
have been 6 weeks and 4 days here tomorrow. The R [Ramsay]s
were here 5 weeks all but a day. A well spent time. Fattuh got in after
9 having hired the cart and sent it to Suleiman Hajji.
