CONTENT:
a good many fleas & lice about. Ludlow has his clothes searched every morning for lice. Ramzana, when asked where they came from, could only offer the explanation that they came from sweat. Three temporary huts have been built for the coolies & our Cookhouse, so we are all quite comfortable here, & will stay tomorrow. A very good day for birds, but no flowers.
B. 22. 26th July. Halt at Donga Pini. Fine almost all the day, with some
Coolies at Pini mist at times. The clouds away down in the valley were
amusing them- particularly beautiful in the evening. Spent the day
selves during the shooting birds in the morning & drying & packing up, &
day's halt. also developed some flower photographs. Coolies remained
Clouds in here all day, ready for tomorrow. There are no houses or
valley below shepherds here, but they amused themselves at their various
Pini in games.
