W.Wentworth Bucknell Esq
                             Sydney

Dear Sir                     Yours 20th  wish duly to [?] and
have seen Mr Aarons, who has been in very indifferent
health for  some time in fact the last 3 months very seriously
indeed otherwise you would have heard from him _
With regard to the word "Yarraman" which is generally
accepted as meaning a horse, Mr  Aarons, says it is  
sometimes pronounced as such to mean a horse but that
"Guramin" is correct for a horse, as Guramin Gulga
(Gulga meaning water) which means a hole made by  
horses in sandy creek to obtain a drink water _
Mr  Aarons expects to visit Sydney shortly and intimated
his intention of calling upon you during such visit
                                                       Yours faithfully
                                                            [Edward R?]  Allworth
