Tomorrow I intend pushing on to try and reach the spring in the Musgrave Range shown on Mr.
Gosse's chart.

It is about forty miles from here, and I have no doubt the horses will go there, although they are very weak.

The natives met to-day were all circumcised; they had long hair and beards, which were all clotted and in strands.

The strands were covered with filth and dirt for six inches from the end, and looked like greased rope; it was as hard as rope, and dangled about their necks, looking most disgustingly filthy.
The men were generally fine-looking fellows.

The natives are very numerous in this country, as fires and camps are seen in many places, besides well-beaten tracks.
