Abstract
REFERRING to my letter on the “Boomerang” which you were so good as to publish in NATURE, vol. xiv. p. 248, I may, perhaps, be permitted to add a few more statements on the same subject. Concerning the use of the boomerang by the North Gippsland aboriginal natives, I have no more to add, but I have acquired some information in respect to its use among the blackfellows of South Australia, which may be of interest.
