We anchored at Port Said this evening at 6 o clock We are close up to land only about a hundred yards from the main street runing along the port. The Smarli [Somali] which left Plymouth on the 11th left here this morning that is the ship we are trying to race to Aussie.  It is a nice moonlight night and its great to be in Port where when one looks out he does'nt only see water. A lot of the boys have gone ashore by climbing down the ropes and geting the natives to row them ashore. Nearly all were caught geting back on board.
