REACH THE FIRST STATION ON THE DAWSON RIVER.

22nd November.

At 6.15 a.m. resumed our route up the river south-east, and at 8.0 came

to a dray-track, which was followed east-north-east two miles to Messrs.

Connor and Fitz' station, where we met with a most hospitable reception.

Latitude by Procyon 23 degrees 51 minutes 15 seconds.

The party having thus reached the occupied country travelled by the

dray-tracks past Mr. Hay's station Rannes, on the 25th November, and

thence by Rawbelle, Boondooma, Tabinga, Nanango, Collinton, Kilkoy,

Durandur, and Cabulture stations, reached Brisbane on the 16th December,

1856.
