Tue July 13
caught from the Battn in the Box??? Office - of going via Agra. I persuaded him that the obvious way was to change a Moghal Sisai ?? take the Brimbay ??? ??? to Khandiva ?? up from there. It saves 24 hrs solid.
We for the carriage vacated by Hickling and Bart. Hickling has apparently had quite a rough time with the dentist & Bart has come up to see the Dr. We only saw them for 10 mins 7 then got away.
We had some Chata Hazri ??? -- via the Primius?? -- at Buxar or thereabouts & that stayed us till we got to Moghal Serai at 9.0. Had Breakfast there. It was a case of eating against time as we only had 25 mins.
It was quite pleasant travelling till about 11.0. Then we seemed to reach a zone where they hadn't had any rain & from there on it was warm.
At Ca???pore we snatched a hasty tea -- in 10 mins & at Tundla we for Dinner.
Then we got the Agra Branch train at 20.15 & arrived at La???ies Hotel about an hour later. We were both pretty tired and went straight to bed
