FIRST TRIP, 15th AUGUST TO 3rd OCTOBER, 1879.
Two years after my arrival in Queensland, I had, in the regular course of my work as Government Geologist, completed an investigation of the coal resources of the Cook district, and I started, on August 15, 1879, on a reconnaisance to the north, with two white men, two black boys and ten horses.
