Chapel
from July 1935
by StPetersYork
Often at night sleep was made difficult owing to the terrible noise made by native carts passing by. The superstitious natives thought that noises would scare away evil spirits, and so did not lubricate the cart wheels, which consequently created the most awful groans and squealings imaginable.
There used to be an old peasant who lived miles out in the hills. At regular intervals he would turn up with a basket of wonderfully fresh mushrooms and several beautiful ferns, which he gathered from the banks of mountain streams. In exchange for these, nothing was more welcome to him than a pair of old boots or trousers.
It is horrible to think that the house in which I spew: four happy years is lying ruined in the midst of a city of dead ; and that the faithful native servants have had their lives cut short so suddenly. R.W.

We are very grateful to Miss Osborne for making twelve Purificators for the use of the Altar, in place of older ones which had worn out. Miss Osborne also worked new lace ends to one of the Linen Cloths, and we take this opportunity of thanking her for all the care and time she so generously gave to keeping the Chapel and its furnishings " decently and in order."
