Delia identified this building as the bungalow at Agra in which the women stayed during the Blue Bus tour, January 1939.
From Lord Meher: Chanji had left for Agra several days before to arrange accommodations there and had arranged for a private house for their stay. The house was brand new and had never been occupied. When the owner found out that Meher Baba and his party were the intended occupants, he offered the house gratis for a fortnight and expressed his gratitude and good fortune to host such an august personality. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the water supply as the well water was unfit for drinking. Kitty contacted a Western neighbor, Mrs. Brown, who allowed them to collect water from her tap.
