Memo [M^r May].

Re. place name "[Tirroan].

A letter, received from Tasmania, by some
one who appears to had early [connexion?] with
Gin Gin Cattle Station, and which was
published of by a local Newspaper, gave
the informtion that this place was named
after an [afr?] aboriginal stockman name
[Diroan],

(The abo. was evidently called by his
class name, which was locally pronounced
[Turro-in?]) [FJW]
