Kowait, ^o AaBlatant Sikrgeon Aalmiutullah,Koweit
Diapensaiy.
^liile I am writing a number of chits and certi
ficates for various employes who have been useful
to me during my stay in Kuweit, I must not forget
to write you a letter to thank you for all you have
done to help me since you came to Kuweit.
It is now getting on for nine months and in
that time you seem to have won the confidence of
the people and managed tactfully a number of small
commissions that 1 have entrusted you with. 1 have
also to thank you for your attendance on me in one
or two light attacks of sickness. You have had
considerable hardships to put up with and borne
them cheerfully when others might have grumbled.
It has been a matter of sincere regret to me that
1 have not been able to house you comfortably’ but
I think jou know what the situation is in tnat res
pect. I hope you will get your quarters built this
summer and that they will be all the more solid
and comfortable because people have taken such a
long time to think about their building.
I shall always be glad to hear of your welfare,
I have forgot to note the satisfaction with which I
observed you take so kindly to the Arabic. In a
place like Koweit, I consider a man almost useless
who cannot talk to the people and it is especially
desirable in the doctor. I don’t think you will
ever regret the trouble you have taken to master
the language.
