Bunnawaunah, Darling River, June 2 1862.

Sir,

I have the honour to inform you that the exploring party under my command
arrived here yesterday in safety and in good health. From the Gulf of
Carpentaria we came, in search of Burke's party, without difficulty, to
Gregory's route from Queensland to South Australia, to a point within 280
miles of the point marked first depot on Burke's route on the map which
shows the routes of different explorers.

Our route from the Gulf of Carpentaria, Mr. Gregory's route to South
Australia, and the routes of other explorers demonstrate the fact that
sheep, cattle, and horses can be taken at a small cost and in the finest
condition from South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales, and the inland
districts of Queensland to stock the country near the Gulf of
Carpentaria, or for exportation to India or elsewhere.
