are due to Mr. l-hilii> Aledhurs-t for tho 
trouble whci. he look in liringing hia 
wlrcleb.“ set to ciimti, and in working 
it in .such tin cxceilent manner. 
Tiiesda.v tnornins wa.s .spent in 
lireaking iiti eanin Koine ol the 
members .set out to Wedg" llay (Nu- 
beena). there to aivaii the arrival o' 
the steamer, and .so avoid the Journey 
round t'ape Itaoul. Others, .vlio had 
brought their ears down, returned to 
the city liy load. Ihe remainder eom- 
pietod the dlsmantluiK of tho eamp. 
and tiien amu.sed themselves in vr.ri- 
ou.s wa.vs whii.st auuiting the nriivai 
of the Reemi re. It was nearly 2 o’clock 
before the steamer's whi.stie warned 
member.s to prepare for the last jiha-so 
of our lOn.ster outing. The boats soon 
made an impression upon the pile of 
baggage on tne beach and by x 
o’clock the last bo.itload had lett the 
.'bore, the anchor was weigiied, and 
the return journey eomincnced. An 
exceptionally smooth sea jirevailed out¬ 
side the Meads, and the photograph¬ 
ers of the party had a busy time as 
we passed close to Cape Raoul and 
other prominent and picturesciue heaa- 
lands which serve to make the South¬ 
ern Tasmanian coast I’amous for its 
scenery. 
Calling in at Wedge Bay. those mem- 
hers who had Journeyeei acro.ss to Nu- 
beena were taken aboard, and it was 
not long before we were heading acros.s 
Storm Hay to where the Dersvent Light 
twinkled and glittered, beyond which 
Ihe glare Irom the city's lights could 
lie seen many miles away. 
Once in the river, the.sie ever grew 
nearer, and by 0 o’clock we were 
alongside the Hobart wharves. 
Thu.“ came to an end another Eas¬ 
ter otiling .and one whicli will alway.s 
lie remembcrerl. owing not only to the 
dclightrnl weather v.’hich w:us experi¬ 
enced. hut to other circum.stanccs as 
.veil, one of which was the willing man¬ 
ner in which one and all worked for 
the .success of the trip, and the ex¬ 
cellent comradeship which was ever 
Iiresent from .start to fini.sh of the 
outing.
