Gale has abated + there were only some showers today with bright intervals. I had a pretty busy day + did it motoring to Forest Road, Muthag Street, Ettrickhaugh Road, Hillside, N. Synton, (to see Walt. Davis a twin brother of Geo.1) via Middlestead to Oakwood, Bowhill W Lodge, Deuchar Mill, Beechwood, Murrayfield + Glebe Terrace. In afternoon had to go back to Lewenshope but luckily got intercepted a message to Miss Allan2 at Bowhill School. Got back at 5.30 + had to go back to Forest Road to see Lizzie Kemp who had cut herself on a Pot de Chambre. Norah3 spent the afternoon with Helen4. Gave my 5th lecture to V.A.D.on inflammation + fevers.
