recorded only a few degrees above freezing point, the reading 

 being 38° on the night of October 18. It was, however, some- 

 what humiliating to turn out of my bunk and expect the 

 canteens to be frozen, and then discover that the thermometer 

 had stuck six degrees too high. On twelve other occasions the 

 readings were below 50° F. The definite records of rainfall 

 were kindly supplied by the managers at the several stations 

 through which we passed. The instruments used were kindly 

 lent by Mr. Bromley, Meteorological Bureau, Adelaide.
