s. You had here shot a bird--a cockatoo you shot. Maribara was this place's name. Onwards through the forest, through the forest onwards, through the forest onwards; we see no other water; the herbage is worthless. We still go onwards, onwards through the forest. We see natives; a few natives we see: the men are two, the women one, the children two. We see the place called Nowergup. We say, "Where is there water? here the water is bad." The natives say, "Yonder the water is good, here it is bad: at Boranyup the water is good." We go onwards, onwards, onwards: at Boranyup we sleep; rain falls as we sleep at Boranyup. 6th day. Onwards through the forest, onwards through the forest, onwards through the forest some of the others sit down; Auger sits down; Hunt sits down.

We sleep at Ka-jil-up: rain falls; the water here is good: the horses feed, well did the horses feed. 8th day. Away, away; along our tracks away, along our tracks away; hills ascending: then pleasantly away, pleasantly away, away; through a forest away, through a forest away, through a forest away; we see a water--the water of Goonmarrarup.
