Australia Twice Traversed
The Romance of Exploration

CHAPTER 1
61/83

To the south of them was a range of some length; of this the twins formed a part.

I called it Seymour's Range, and a conic hill at its western end Mount Ormerod.

We passed the twins in eleven miles, and found some water in the creek near a peculiar red sandstone hill, Mount Quin; the general course of the creek was south 70 degrees east.

Seymour's Range, together with Mounts Quin and Ormerod, had a series of watermarks in horizontal lines along their face, similar to Johnston's Range, seen when first starting, the two ranges lying east and west of one another; the latter-named range we were again rapidly approaching.

Not far from Mount Quin I found some clay water-holes in a lateral channel.
