The evening meal over, there followed a seven-mile ride back to Oenpelli under the stars, first at a walk across the plain full of deep holes, treacherously covered by long stiff grass ; — " My word, I've come many a buster here galloping after buffalo, " confessed 114 AN UNTAMED TERRITORY chap. Paddy Cahill ; — then at a trot as we passed on to the road that led beneath the wall of rock, looming black and mysterious above us. Every here and there a flare of fire among the trees and a low jabbe...ring of voices attracted us to a blacks' camp. First Paddy Cahill pushed forward, speaking to them in their own tongue, then we followed to gaze upon the vivid little picture. A patch of firelight glowed out of the solid darkness of the bush. It shone on black-bearded men leaning against trees, lit up the smooth shoulders of lubras and the plump limbs of sleepy children huddled together on the ground. The arrival of a new white " Missis " caused great commotion. The blacks thrust handfvils of paper-bark into the flames and held them high to gaze at her, chatter- ing excited comments.
