My dearest Mary I am feeling that I should love to have a note from you & hope that there will be one at Istanbul when I get back there. Things move very slowly here & I have to wait until Saturday to see the Chief technical man here. He is away in another part of the country until Friday night. This means that I shall not be back at Istanbul until Sunday which is a nuisance. This business is taking so much time that I shall want to rush home as soon as it is finished. I wish that you were here darling, I think you’d like it altho’ theres[sic] nothing to do for amusement. love Roy.

I hope that you are very well dear and also Margaret & Rosemary, I’m very well myself but getting impatient of the slow methods here.
Ankara is quite a nice place but very dead at this time of the year.
It is pretty hot here but not [underlined] too [/underlined] bad, you remember when we went on our cruise darling well its about as hot as Casablanca I should say during the day.
In the evening it goes quite cool so that one can sleep comfortably & I have a good bed altho’ [sic] my room is not so big.
This hotel is a nice one, just like any good hotel in England or France but there are very few people here & it is awfully quiet.
St Barbe & Buckingham of De Havilands [sic] have been here but they left for Istanbul last night so the only Englishmen here are Vaughan-Scott & I.
Hassan Haller Bey has brought his wife she is a judge of the high court at Istanbul (which shows

how emancipated the Turkish women now are.
You never see any Turks either men or women dressed in national costume except a few peasants in a rather scrufy [sic] version of the fancy dress costume we imagine.
The law says that they must wear European clothing & they do so, quite good clothes & well cut too.
There are two small cinemas here but we have’nt been to them as they would be too hot & stuffy I fear.
Nothing to do in the evenings but talk & fortunately Vaughan Scott is a most interesting man having lived all over the world when he was in the diplomatic service.
I do hope dearest that you have fixed up some holiday arrangements for yourself & the girlies & I’v [sic] been wondering whether Auntie Nelly had arrived at Kingsley.
We are just off to try & see an American whom we have discovered is here in some official capacity in the Turkish Ministry. I hope that we shall get hold of him as he might the [sic] useful in putting us in touch with the best officials to push our business.
Well dearest heart I’v so little to tell you so far about the business, I’ll leave here tomorrow evening for Istanbul & be there Sunday. I will then decide by what route I shall return after getting I hope a letter from you.
All my love to you and my darling daughters, if only you could have been here with me sweetheart I should have enjoyed this trip immensely but as it is I’m a bit bored.
Well bye bye dear & lots of kisses to you & Margaret & Rosemary my fondest love to you all

M’ Vaughan-Scott could not arrive in time to meet me as he lives down the Bosphorus [sic] somewhere but he sent me his assistant Hasan Haler Bey who met me at the station & has fixed me up at the club.

It is’nt [sic] so very hot here just now but it is only 10 am. & perhaps it gets hotter by midday.
I believe that the weather is hotter at Ankara.

According to present arrangements however I leave this evening for Ankara with M’ Vaughn-Scott [sic] & Haler Bey.

So far I’v [sic] seen very little of Constantinople or Istanbul as it is now called but the part I drove thro’ from the station is not much different from many European cities in the south and eastern part of Europe.

I wonder whether you have managed to arrange an holidays yet? I hope so anyhow.

St. PAUL’S SCHOOL,
JALAPAHAR,
DARJEELING,
23.7.33
My darling Daddy.
Thanks for your letter.
The 2nd XI played St Josephs [sic] again and this time we beat them 2-1. That made the points 7-7. The [deleted] [undecipherable] [/deleted] 2nd XI went to the pictures and we got a whole holiday. Stevie and I both played forwards this time. But yesterday our 1st XI lost against them 2-0 and they won the cup again. The rain spoilt the game for us. I go [sic] 78 in English and came 3rd.
We saw Mummy yesterday and today and had a good time. Yes we will take care of Mummy and not let her get ill again. We went for a ride today, and are getting nearly as good as jockeys now, I can control any horse in the stables
[page break]
now. The weather is very bad at present and it does nothing but rain the whole day long. We are starting tomorrow, and the football houses matches will take place at the end of the year. I am glad to hear everything is alright at home. With lots of love and Kisses from your loving son [deleted] Da [/deleted]
[underlined] David. [/underlined]

My darling Daddy.
Thank you for your letter, and the pamflits [sic], some of them were very good ones. The under 15 XI played St. Josephs and they beat us 4-1 duly to the falt [sic] of our goal keep. Stevie played centreforward [sic] and I played right back. Our forwards could not break through their backs so this wednessday [sic] I am going forwards. Lets [sic] hope we win this time. We should have easily won the game. The first 15 minutes of the game the ball only came on our half once. Last night we saw a piece call [sic] “Head Winds”, it was shown with the school machine, and we enjoyed it. We saw Mummy yesterday and today and had a good time. I have come 5th this month. I know my dorm masters report. It is Jo in charge of the Dorm, and maintains

ST. PAUL’S SCHOOL,
JALAPAHAR,
DARJEELING,
9.7.33.
My darling Daddy,
Thanks for your letter. I did not do very well in Divinity I got 44, but in Chemistry I came 2nd with 70. the 1st Boy getting 75. We are playing St. Josephs on Wednesday 1st XI match and on Saterday [sic] 2nd XI match. I have torn up the notes of the speech I gave, but I remember what [deleted] to [/deleted] I said so at the end of the letter I will write out the notes. Four of my form boys spoke including me, and the Rector said that the four best speeches of the day was given by my form the fourth form. We did not see poor Mummy yesterday and today because she is not well and does not want us to catch a throat from her. She very kindly asked Mrs. Apcar to take us out instead. Many happy returns of the day Daddy, [deleted] [indecipherable] [/deleted] God bless and keep us all. So sorry for wishing
[page break]
you so late. On Wednessday [sic] we went to Jalapahar and saw a concert. It was very good indeed.
All the forms are giving a concert very shortly. My form is acting “Shivering Shocks”, but we are changing the name to the “Secret of the Formula” or the “Hughes Murder Case.” I am the murderer, and I have an awful lot to learn.
Notes on Debate.
Motion. That the Expedition to Mt. Everest is a waste of Money [sic], lives, and Time [sic].
I am against the motion.
[Underlined] My Notes. [/underlined]
[underlined] Brave Men, the good Conquering Spirit. Courage. [/underlined] People say they are mad, what about when the areoplane [sic] was thought of as mad. A Scientist while inventing something is killed. The Expidition [sic] failed people laugh at the brave men who went up but he who laughs last laughs longest.
I made enlargements on these notes.
With lots of love and kisses your loving son [underlined] David. [/underlined]
