J, and G are boomerangs of the returning variety. They are al)out 18 inclies in length from point to point and have a maxi- miun width of '1 inclies. Eig. 7 is a hsliing spear composed of a shaft made from the stem of the grass-tree, 7 ft. G in. In length, and four pieces of hardwood 25 inches in length lashed together..., but with the jDoints sej^arated l)y means of pieces of wood tlirust in Ijctweeu them, and fastened into the shaft by means of gum and twine. This spear is used in catching the large fish. Going into the water as far as he can, to use the S|tear with effect, the native stands like a stattie holding the spear obliquely in poised hand. * ready to strike liis jirey as it passes.
