VM/SMcD.

The Superintendent,
Cherbourg Settlement,
Via MURGON.

When writing my communication of the 5th instant
regarding the meaning of the word "Goonneringerringgi" it was intended
to forward you a copy of the letter received as apart from the word
meaning, the enquirer was seeking further information.

This oversight has been rectified and attached is
copy of Mr. Lumsdaine's letter.

Deputy Director of Native Affairs.
