The Booandik Tribe of South Australian Aborigines; Christina Smith

AUTHOR

Not specified

t of the aborigines of this district were blessed to a degree that surprised even ourselves. Mr. Smith and myself arrived with our family at Gh-eytown, Rivoli Bay South, in January, 1845 ; and as the blacks were numerous in the locality, we very soon made their acquaintance. Mr. Smith was a man of great zeal in the cause of Christ ; he had a true missionary spirit, and was not slow to avail himself of the opportunity which presented itself to preach to them Jesus. We remained at Rivoli Bav ten years — Mr. Smith acting for two years as agent for his brother-in-law, and for eight years as postmaster and agent for the South.
