Explorations in Australia

CHAPTER 5
15/237

Latitude by meridian altitude of Regulus 27 degrees 7 minutes South.

Walking in turns every day.
23rd.
Steering a little west of north over level country for six miles, with a few water-courses with white gums in them, we came into granite country with bare hills in every direction.

Kept on till we came to a brook with pools of fresh water, where we camped about one mile from the Murchison River.

Latitude 26 degrees 52 minutes 38 seconds, Mount Murchison bearing North 50 degrees East.

Went with Pierre to a peak of granite North 50 degrees East, about one mile and a half from camp, from which I took a round of angles and bearings.
