Thursday, 26th May, Large Gum Creek
Started at daylight for beyond the Douglas. At 3 o’clock arrived at water. Horses so much done up that I shall require to give them two days’ rest, if the water will hold so long, and then I must return to the Strangway Springs, as we know that to be permanent water. There are some heavy clouds coming up from the south-west, which I hope will bring rain.
