- W4246622936 abstract "EARLY in the summer a memorial was submitted to the Governments of South Australia and Victoria praying that facilities might be granted to Mr. Gillen, one of the inspectors of aborigines, and Prof. Baldwin Spencer for the continuance of their investigations into the habits and folk-lore of the natives of Central Australia and the Northern Territory. The memorial, which was signed by all British anthropologists and many prominent representatives of other sciences, has met with a prompt and generous response. The Government of South Australia has granted a year's leave of absence to Mr. Gillen, and the Government of Victoria has provided a substitute for Prof. Spencer during his absence from Melbourne. Mr. Syme, the proprietor of the Melbourne Age, has contributed 1000l. towards the ordinary expenses of the expedition. The Government of South Australia has also allowed the expedition to make use of the depôts and staff of the Transaustralian telegraph for the forwarding and storage of supplies. The explorers start in February, and it may be confidently anticipated that, if the winter rains make conditions favourable for travelling, they will be rewarded with the same conspicuous success which attended their expedition of three years ago; although the task before them requires even greater tact, since the natives of the Northern Territory are more difficult to deal with than the aborigines of the centre, who know Mr. Gillen and regard him with the utmost confidence. The tribes of the MacDonnell Ranges will be studied even more minutely than before, and afterwards the explorers will go towards the Gulf of Carpentaria, along the Roper River, and, time permitting, proceed down the Daly and Victoria Rivers." @default.
