Diary 2.7.1883


Monday July 2

Fine morning but we are not going, We have been cleaning all our tins ready for the Doctor to inspect to see if they are clean. I am tired out of being here they told us this morning we might be a fortnight yet, we have only gone 37 miles since 12 o’clock yesterday, it is very slow progress. We could walk as fast as that in twenty-four hours, you will be very uneasy about us. The wind is a head wind that is to say it is blowing dead against us, out of 77 miles run since 1 o’clock yesterday only got seventeen nearer Bundaberg.
