1905(明治38) 年3月28日 Tuesday

3月28日（火曜日） Since last night we have a good breeze and I do not feel the heat so much. I got up early in the morning and sighted the mountains of the Hindoo peninsula. Calm and pleasant all day. As I was writing the journal the steward came and said that some warships are to be seen. I ran up on the deck at once and I saw the flushes of the search lights and could see the ships. There were 2 or three ships at least but we could not tell whether they were Japanese or Russian. 昨夜から良い風が吹いて、あまり暑さを感じずに済んでいる。早朝に起きて、インド亜大陸の山々を望む。一日中穏やかで快適だ。日記をつけていると客室係がやって来て、艦隊が見えると教えてくれた。すぐ甲板に駆け上がってみると、サーチライトが輝き、船も見えた。少なくとも2、3隻は見たが、日本船かロシア船か判別できず。
