Herbert Hale, S.A. Museum Director has received back from safe storage all Ethnological material. Included was a box of treasures packed by Mr Tindale which included the Scaddan Implement.
It is to be returned to Glauert separately under registered cover. Hale apologises for the temporary misplacement.

Glauert is acknowledging receipt of a very excellent cast of the Scaddan Implement.

He goes on to say that the original has led to considrable discussion as it is so unlike anything found previously in Western Australia. Glauert is of the opinion that it is a European object brought to W.A. and either lost or intentionally thrown away. It reminds him of a British or French palaeolithic 'Hand-Axe' or 'Boucher'. Glauert compares the situation to that of a Roman coin found in virgin bushland not long ago even though there is no record of the Romans ever visiting Western Australia and goes on to say that because it was found in W.A., should we assume that it is Western Australian. 

McCarthy does not need Glauert to bring the stone to Sydney. He is more interested in getting details of it published. 

He asks if Glauert is able to do this in his journal or in the Wetern Australian Natuarlist publication.

Reverend Worms has sent a copy of his publication 'Djamar, the Creator' and asks that Glauert informs the Historical Society of its exisgtence.

He has also sent two fossils and a small stone tjuringa. The fossils he found east of Gregory Salt Lake and the stone came from members of the Gogadja tribe of the same area.

Glauert acknowledges receipt of a very fine stone tjuringa and Rev. Worms article on Djamar the Creator adding that the Museum is very anxious to build up its collection of Australian material before it's too late. He laments that
