I will just tell you. I remember he had a tea garden in Kangra [hill
district in the Punjab], which is now on the Indian side. This belonged
to his family. He took us, me and one or two others with him, and
we spent two three evenings there together. Now this kind of

was doing this, and he sat on the charcoal sigris as they were called
and dinner was cooked by all of us."
