(14)  Attended the band concert at Eden gardens at sunset.  This is a favorite resort for all classes of society at dusk.  The Britisher stops here in his motor with his wife & family or their pet dog if children are wanting.  Native nurse girls with their European charges are here in numbers & some Bengalese also, but Eurasians & Europeans predominate.
The gardens are well arranged with lawns, trees, flower beds & a lake.  Here I saw a Burmese pagoda brought intact from Burma.  It was a natural teak temple consisting of a series of peaked roofs one [[?sciped]] above another.
