Masada 24 day ― καὶ ἐτεληώθη.1

Fine ― but gray. Not so cold ― a thaw.

Breakfast late with J.B.E. μαλώνει πάντοτε.2

Worked at the Masada  till 1. ― Reckoning the half hours, I have done it, be it what it is ― in 3 weex.

J.B. Edwards went at 2. Hewitson came, & Mrs. Davidson. Walked ― 4 ― 5.30. ―

Found W. Raleigh here ― who comes to morrow. Dined alone. ―
