Taylor and Johns away at 6.30 and get to within twelve miles of Hermannsburg, many difficult creek crossings for the day.

Last day of the month, make and mend, wash and bathe, general repairs in the Terry camp, especially the vehicle, the dashboard is becoming loose due to shrinkage. A hot steamy day with dense haze and south east breeze, very poor visibility, monsoonal clouds build up and the wind swings to the north with light sand falling on the camp, a big wet anticipated and tents rigged. Bridge 'til 10, Terry and Colson going down by 1537.
