Description | Well, to begin with, there was a grand corroboree on both sides, followed by what they, perhaps, would call a consultation of chief warriors, but which, in reality, was nothing more or less than a yabbering of the whole community of about 500 niggers, men, women, and children all appearing to have something particular to impart, and all talking at the same time, as if life depended upon their having first say. | |||||||
