Part 8
To Feb 3-15

PS. You ask about Fitz's rank – He is a senior lieutenant – plain Mr on shore – at sea by courtesy - Commander or Captain or C. Officer – He's an egoist – I like him & we get on well together – as a navigator he knows his job & all of us have great faith in him – In an emergency I think he'd be cool & collected –
Its Friday 6th – We shall be back in Rabaul by 10 am – Its 6 am now – Weather very fine but hot –
We've to coal – It may be the end of Feb before we get to Sydney so don't worry –
