Explorations in Australia

CHAPTER 5
188/237

We followed along and through the ranges, twisting and turning about, and at last found a number of natives' tracks, making towards a gap, and, following along them, found they led to a gorge and white gum gully, ascending which we found water in some little springs.

After watering our horses we returned towards the party three miles and camped, intending to bring the party to the spring to-morrow.

They had given them damper and a handkerchief.

Pierre gave them two kylies.
