Ref. 41 Gen'l.

Mr. Sydney May,
University of Queensland,
George Street,
BRISBANE

Your Ref. SM/ARW

On receipt of your communication of the 2nd instant I
placed your enquiry with a reliable native to interview any
native who would be likely to be of any assistance in fur-
nishing information you require.

From what could be gleaned the suffix "illa" means
"cold water", "ulla" "camp" and the word "booringa" means FIRE!

I regret that this is the best I can do.

Superintendent.
