1948 Thurs, Jan 22 Packed up & went down to Dally. Saw one swamp- wellby, P. brioa, 2 snakes, black with rings belly, one time hare. Fixed up affair in Dally, had lunch with Mrs. Timbour Thomas Jack. In the afternoon they drove me out to Ternift Creek. Creek to look for fossils. Found bits of Diplocodonts & tracegods in bed - seen in tanks. Heavily incrustated with lime. After tea Mrs. Jack gave me the fragment of mandible with the flat-crowned paired tooth in it; also a nearly complete mandible of a Diplocodont. Then he sent me a peculiar hollow horny bit tooth like specimen somewhat resembling a pterodactyl. What is it? All these from the bed of the Condamine River. Timbour Creek runs a few miles to the west of Dally, the "black earth". Vertical section 6 ft high shows few sandy lenses. Bed of creek, nearly dry, is full of limestone nodules & concretions. The creek feeds up in the Burdekin into. A possible source of lime - see bat-care district (p. ). Para-salt Creek at Tipton in Fort Hill (within few miles of Dally) if Burdekin mountains. (Photo of creek) Saw another cave. Fri, Jan 23 By train Dally back to Brisbane (5.20 am - 1 pm). Unpacked specimens at museum. Confirmed with Len Press.
