(24)  This morning we found the Teesta listed to the opposite side without any apparent reason as far as we could learn of the crew.  The anchor was hoisted at 10 A.M. & we steamed out to the mouth and over the bar.  The Weather was squally with wind & rain.

(25) Our weather has become quite ideal.  Today we arose to blue sea flecked by a few white caps & a chop sea of small waves which were scarcely felt on board.  I spent some of the day playing Bridge with an Australian wool [[strikethrough]] deal [[/strikethrough]] buyer, a Calcutta merchant & an American commercial traveler from Boston.

(26)  Sunday broke calm & clearer than Saturday.  The sea was deep blue & without white caps or waves of much size.
