There were occasional tracts of "devil-devil" land, and patches of scrub, which, at no great distance, united into one mass of Bricklow.

Tracing a little creek to its head, I crossed ridges with open forest.

Mr.Gilbert and Charley returned, after having found, as I anticipated, a considerable watercourse at the foot of the westerly range.

Suttor Creek was afterwards found to join this watercourse, and, as it was its principal tributary, the name was continued to the main stream.
March 12 .-- In travelling to Mr.Gilbert's discovery, we crossed large plains, and, at the end of six miles, entered into thick scrub, which continued with little interruption until we reached the dry channel of the Suttor.

This scrub, like those already mentioned, varies in density and in its composition; the Bricklow acacia predominates; but, in more open parts, tufts of Bauhinia covered with white blossoms, and patches of the bright green Fusanus and silvery Bricklow, formed a very pleasing picture.
