The native ate heartily of damper given to him, and remained all day, and slept at our camp.

Distance ten miles.
NEAR THE END OF THE JOURNEY.
24th.
Travelled down river, the native still accompanying us, and at about six miles met a very old native, and a woman and a little girl.

They were quite friendly, and showed us water; and the woman and girl came with us to Appatinna, Mr.Gosse's depot 21, where we camped at a fine pool of water under right bank of river.

Windich shot three emus that were coming to the water, and we all had plenty of them to eat.

The natives were very pleased, and went back and brought up the old man and another woman and child.
