1915
June 20 Sun.
A big school at Giza (Saidieh School) has been converted into a Red Cross Military Hospital & is being run by civil voluntary aid. I had a look over the Hospital this afternoon.
Suddenly received 100 fresh patients to-night – First for a fortnight – our hopes of getting away from Egypt dashed to the ground – Hurrah! They are only to stay for the night & to-morrow – Now even more hope of getting away from the land of the Pharoahs.
