July 2nd Sund.
Went to church in the morning. Came home sick and spent the afternoon and evening in bed. As Monday was spent in the same uninteresting way it is not worthy of special notice.
July 4th Tues.
On Tuesday afternoon the Kempes very kindly invited us to go for a sail with them which invitation we accepted & at two o'clock the boat left the wharf, containing Mr, Mrs, Walter, Ethel, {Eurena?} and Phoebe Kempe, Miss Burrows, a darkey who had charge of the boat, Mr Mickle and myself. We sailed to the West side of {Hinson's?} Island and the gentlemen fished & Mr Kempe caught one fish which was thrown back into the water. In the meantime we had a couple of bunches of fruit, pineapple, orange & banana & mangoes. In the evening I went over to Kempe's while Mr M went over to see Mr Armer about going to St. Georges. Did not get back until after ten.
July 5th We took the Paget ferry in the morning &
