On hospital ship “Esmeraldos”.  Nurses very nice, especially Nurse Bulman the night sister who looked after me well.  Arrived in Lemnos and went on hosp ship “Assaye”.  Nurse Bulman confiscated a lot of nice things and smuggled them to me.  Am sorry I have to leave her ship.

Egyptian Engineers refused to work this morning and the guard fired on them, killing several.   Harsh treatment but perhaps necessary.
