Diary 15.6.1883


Friday June 15

Very cold but fine, but did not keep so all day, began hailing. I have been making a pie of our tinned mutton. We get flour to make plum pudding of, but we make ours into cakes and pies but we have no baking powder so they are not so light as we have them at home, still they are better than the bread we get here. We are pining for the want of good bread but we will make up for it when we land. Distance today 235 miles.
