April 29ih. — We reached Lake Hawden — a flat, swampy plain, which, in the rainy season, is covered with water. There is good pasturage in the sur- rounding country, which rises into gently undulating hills lightly wooded with she-oak. We here fell in with Scott's party, who had brought several thousand sheep, in search of fresh runs for the next season. They were all well armed, and had experienced some annoyance from the natives. Their sheep were folded in two large stock-yards, which they ha...d erected of boughs, and their horses were tethered near their encampment. This was rudely constructed of reeds, and not nearly so snug as the huts of the natives ; and the approach to it was rendered perilous by a semi-circle of furious dogs that guarded it with 152 RAIN AND SWAMPS. the incessant and fierce watchfulness of Cerberus. We encamped about half a mile from the sheep- yards, amidst drenching rain, and passed a cold, miserable night ; for our fires were put out by the rain, and the wood was so damp it would not burn.
