The following notes have been taken from time to time, simply with a view of keeping fresh in our minds the impressions made upon us, concerning the various places and people we visited and came across, in our journey round the world. Very much against my wishes, but at the instigation of my Father-in-law, this feeble attempt has been printed, and so looks much more imposing than was ever intended. To punish Mr. Norbury, I dedicate this little book to him, as he will thereby become, to a certain extent, responsible for the criticism it will give rise to, but would ask him, and all other kind readers to bear in mind that most expressive little Eastern word, "Maskee1 ," which in this case would mean "She did her best, so never mind."
AMY NORBURY. August, 1903.
