Bahrain April, 12, 1934.
Dear Colonel Loch, r
With reference to your D.0/578 dated 7th
April, 1934.
I have been in constant correspondence with
Mrs. Heinemann since her son was buried here.
I put up a stone on the grave and recently cemented
it in and I have frequently planted bulbs on it,
which have been successful.
I have now planted a lot of local white lilies
which should grow better if they can be watered
with good water. I suggest that if your gardener
would water the grave once a week it would be pos-
t
u>
sible for flowers to grow on it which what Mrs.
Heinemann wants. I have not had any dealings
with the American Mission in this connection.
Yours sincerely,
Lieut. Colonel. G. Loch, I.A.
