AN AUTUMN TOUR
the Europeans, and insisted upon several of
his ministers putting on skates, which were
readily lent, with results which may be
imagined.
I remember that one day in 1895 when
we were skating on beautiful ice, with
snow lying all round us, the thermometer
in the sun stood at ninety degrees.
But I must return to Ispahan.
Lord Curzon had most kindly sent the
Legation an outfit of tents from India, and
these had been pitched by Captain Schnei
der, the acting Consul, in a large walled
enclosure, the Tupkhaneh, placed at our
disposal by the Prince. It was very
pleasant to find oneself in a really good
tent again, with everything comfortable
around one, and two or three days' rest to
look forward to. In our marching camp
the tents had been poor, as the Tehran
Legation had no camp equipment for
journeys. The standing camp at Ispahan,
with its fine white new tents and lofty flag
staff, looked quite imposing, and people
came in numbers to see it.
