Encounters with Aborigines
Walsh River, October 1929
As Ross is very close to Cairns, from where he would depart for Port Moresby (Territory of Papua) on November 1, 1929, October is the likeliest date for those events in this chapter that take place in Far North Queensland. The datelining of the article with “December” is likely only made to make the article seem a bit more fresh, when it is published in June 1930.
