CHAPTER 5

Found camp to be in latitude 26 degrees 13 minutes 25 seconds by meridian altitude of Altair, and longitude about 131 degrees 3 minutes east.
GOSSE'S SPRING.
7th.
Left spring, and steering about east for seven miles along foot of Musgrave Ranges, when we turned North-North-East for four miles, and east one mile to Mr.Gosse's depot Number 17, found spring in a brook, large white gums in gully; a very fine spring, but not running; any quantity of water.

First-rate feed in gully and on flat.

Weather cloudy.

Intend resting here to-morrow, as one of our horses is very lame, and there is everything we want.
8th.
Rested at camp.

Rained lightly last night, and very stormy.
