Wednesday, August 7th, 1901.

Mr Nicholson came to me about a memorial service for Mr Beach, "the Father of the House" next Friday. I made the arrangements & then made a start of my holiday. Carissima & Reichel were with me. The boat train was inconveniently crowded, and the steamer as full as it cd hold. Reichel provided a mystic draught for me, & for himself warranted a sure prophylactic against sea–sickness. We retired to our cabins, & did not sleep, & were not sick. So we reached the Hook of Holland in pleased, if not arrogant mood. On the platform we parted company, Carissima going in the direction of Cologne, me in that of the Hague & Amsterdam.
