This is a beautiful day and a nice breeze is blowing. I took a walk to the hospital where I learned that our two patients were getting along fine. I also saw the greatest and largest cockpit in the city. The building is as large as an ordinary show tent where at least 5000 people witness the performances at one time but since the breakout of the war this has been used as a lookout. This building has a tower about 80 feet high and one can get the best view of the city, country and bay. [Frank] Christopher, [Charles] Lewis, [Alec] Ewing, [Max] Hannan and [Charles] Stumm are on the sick list.
