Menindie would be at your service for depositing any articles you
may find it inconvenient to remove to Cooper's Creek at present. You will endeavour to secure, if possible, twelve pommel pack-saddles, now arrived, it is believed, on the Darling. These were forwarded via Adelaide, and will no doubt be of great use to the main party. The committee desire that on your meeting with Mr. Burke, you will show him, and deposit with him, this despatch, as also a copy of yours of the 19th instant, together with copies of all despatches you may forward to the committee during Mr. Burke's absence; and the committee expect that you will communicate under such circumstances as frequently as possible. Mr. Hodgkinson bears letters for the leader and Mr. Wills. In conclusion, it is hoped that your endeavours to remove the stores from your present depot to Cooper's Creek will be early and successfully accomplished. I have the honour to be, sir, Your obedient servant, (Signed) JOHN MACADAM, M.D., Secretary. To Mr. Wright, third in command, temporary depot, Plurarmora Creek, Darling River, New South Wales. |
