Mon. 10. [10 April 1899] Cold. Museum in the morning after calling on
Mr Bell. After lunch drove out to Tatri in delicious woods. Walked
about and saw the King's summer palace. Desilaea was here.
Home at 7, very cold evening. Mr Bell dined with us, but left early so
that we might pack. Presently appeared the porter to say that our
dragoman did not expect us to leave till Wed. so after after [sic] a
moment of horror we retired peacefully to bed.
