Reading edition

Lieut.-Colonel D. Collins, Account of the English Colony of New South Wales, Second Edition (London, 1804), pp. 353, 372 sqq. The Cammeray of whom Collins speaks are no doubt the tribe now better known as the Kamilaroi. Carrahdy, which he gives as the native name for a high priest, is clearly the Kamilaroi kuradyi, “medicine-man” (W. Ridley, Kamilaroi and other Australian Languages, Sydney, 1875, p. 158).
