Friday 14 August

We had an unexpected visit from residential liner The World, which was tarrying in our humble port, waiting for bad weather to clear from the waters between Scotland and Iceland. The millionnaires on board flocked ashore to view the island. The ship is nearly 700 feet (200 m) in length, rather bigger than any of the vessels that passed by her through the day.
