Became acquainted with an Egyptian named Solomon Bey (a well to do fellow and a great linguist) and later fast friends.  Had dinner at his house (a fine structure) several times and met his daughter Senedi.
The most beautiful girl I ever saw. Its impossible to describe her beauty.  Her eyes were simply wonderful (big brown ones with long sweeping lashes) perfectly shaped ears, nose and mouth and a beautiful skin (blonde).   She speaks good English and I spent many happy days with her.  She wears the national costume with the white veil.
