observer at that. The only articles written by him, so far 
as my knowledge extends, are the following :— 
‘1. ‘An Keho of Bogan River History,’ Town and Coun- 
try Journal, 1918 (May 14th), p. 22. 
“2. “Aboriginal Arborglyphs,’ Scientific Australian, xx., 
No. 2, 1914, pp. 29-31, text figs. 
‘*3. ‘The Passing of the lithic People. A Story of the 
Coming of White Wings to Australia,’ Life, xxv., No. 4,

the following article was unquestionably inspired by him: 
‘* “Relics of Past History—Aboriginal Arborglyphs. The

aboriginal stone implements, and of these he amassed a 
very considerable collection, more particularly from the 
western districts of this State. He next turned his atten- 
tion to the ‘carved trees,’ or, as he called them, ‘Arbor- 
olyphs,’ a subject of absorbing interest—the second of the 
above references refers to these. On finding that I had 
been for some years engaged in collecting data about these 
same ‘carved trees,’ which I termed ‘Dendroglyphs,’ as 
a more appropriate name, Milne, in the most unselfish and 
kind manner, placed the whole of his photo-prints and 
notes at my disposal. The account of these remarkable 
objects by myself is now in the printer’s hands, and will 
be issued as one of the publications of the Department of 
Mines, when the large share taken in the work by my de- 
ceased friend will be manifest to the most casual reader.’’
