14th August 1915

34 disabled Aus-

tralians left here

for Aust. Every-

body lines up to

see these “Stumpies”

& “Wingies” go. Some-

times with a

tear from the

Sisters.

Motoring is in the boom

all of a sudden.

Went first of all for a

joy ride to the Palace for

clothes then round Heliop-

olis, back to Atelier for tea

& a car was hired by some

generous person & with

a sister in charge of

us we set forth thro-

ugh Cairo over the

Nile & through some

beautiful gardens

& landed back at

dusk. Finished up

with bridge (deck-

chair- bridge) More

(50) wounded for Atelier tonight
