For some days mysterious men prowling about streets here.
Typhoon. Fish scarce. We have none for several days at time. Tried shark liver. Not so oily but very fishy. Gives everybody headaches. Thought of it is nauseating.
Dependants moving into Rosary Hill. 800 expected. No food in rooms but only two meals daily 10 and 6. Cissy Roylance says allowed out daily.
Septic ((Selwyn Clarke)) acquitted interned. Wai Po Cheung released says was locked up for alleged bribery. Confessed after torture. Says knows who put me in, by name Howard To. Says Grayburn dead in Stanley. Boils. Blood poisoning.
To Foreign Office for new passes. Fears not realised. Eurasian not nationality but we use it. Mavis Xavier unsettles by saying some people altered Eurasian to British and will get Red Cross relief plus chance at repat. To Red Cross to enquire. Reception cold when I say have Eurasian pass. Suggest I see Keller since Swiss are looking after British interests. Keller says British evac in offing but no info of Australian.
