T. E. Lawrence to his family
Cairo
27.7.15
Mr. Hogarth turned
up yesterday without warning. He will take over the Anatolian section of
our office on the spot: we hope that he will be able to stay here for a
bit. Though I suppose he must eventually go to the Dardanelles. He seems
very fit: I have hardly spoken to him yet.
There is of course,
nothing happening here, or likely to happen.
Reports, and ciphering and drawing maps all day. The Dardanelles show
will end soon:- Syria is quite quiet, though the Armenian villages in
the North have been broken up, and the people scattered to various
districts. No massacres, however, as yet. I can't think of anything else
to say:- The hot weather, as Father is interested in it, will end at the
end of September. It's not very hot now - and besides I am never more
than about 5 minutes in the open air.
