CHAPTER 5
99/237

We continued North-East, and after going four miles camped on a patch of feed, the first seen for the last sixty miles.

I was very tired, having walked nearly twenty miles, and having to drive two knocked-up horses.

I have good hopes of getting both feed and water to-morrow, for, if we do not, we shall be in a very awkward position.
3rd.
Soon after starting, found a little water in a gully and gave our horses a drink.

Ascended a spur of the range and had a good view ahead, and was very pleased with the prospect.

Steering North-East towards a large range about fifteen miles off, we found a great deal of spinifex, although the country generally was thickly wooded.
