Description

Layer Warning:
Only corroborees that were recorded can be represented, such that these are often those witnessed by and/or performed for colonists and other audiences. Their distribution therefor reflects colonial presence rather than the distribution of corroborees.
The blacks held a Jubilee during which they have had several corroborees. The second on last Wednesday night was visited by a large number of townspeople. They say they will hold a grand corroboree on Easter Monday night, in which they will be joined by the blacks of Gundagai, Tumut and Burrows.
