24th November, 1941.
Mr. F.J. Watson, Union Street, TOOWONG. S.W.1.
Dear Sir,
Prior to your visit on Wednesday I am sending you the following names for your consideration: -
Coochi Mudlo; and Tamrookum, which appears as Jinbroken in Alan Cunningham's map, 1829, and as Ginbrookin in the land map of 1848. I have used a magnifying glass on these spellings.
If you would write out the very fine statement you made on "Tya" and "dha", "in the place of" or "the place of", so that I could have it on Wednesday, it would be a great help.
Any notes that you can add regarding Pimpama and the Laheys will also be of great value.
Yours faithfully,
Hon. Secretary.
