A neighbour of mine exclaimed, when I mentioned that I proposed making a small collection of the folklore legends of the tribe of blacks I knew so well living on this station, "But have the blacks any legends?"-thus showing that people may live in a country and yet know little of the aboriginal inhabitants; and though there are probably many who do know these particular legends, yet I think that this is the first attempt that has been made to collect the tales of any particular tribe, and publish them alone. At all events, I know that no attempt has been made previously, as far as the folklore of the Noongahburrahs is concerned. Therefore, on the authority of Professor Max Muller, that folklore of any country is worth collecting, I am emboldened to offer my small attempt, at a collection, to the public.
