Senr Const Jones respectfully
reports that Mr Cameron states he is unable of his
own knowledge to give the meaning of the
Aborigines names of places. The Senr Const
saw several of the old aborigines and obtained
the meaning of thirty names from them.
It is hard to obtain accurate meanings
of the names from the aborigines in this
District, as they are a mixed lot formerlly belonging
to different Tribes, most of which the old black
state " had different meanings for the names
of places. [Original text has been crossed out]
