The native boy lived with Mr. White, the surgeon, who, with that humanity for which he is distinguished, cured both the boy and girl of a confluent small-pox, which swept off hundreds of the natives in the winter of 1788. This dreadful disorder, which, there is no doubt, is a distemper natural to the country, together with the difficulty of procuring a subsistance, renders the situtation of these poor wretches truly miserable. The girl lived with the chaplain's wife, and both she and the boy were very tractable; but the girl at times would be out of temper, and could not bear to be thwarted. I shall now add a vocabulary of the language, which I procured from Mr. Collins and Governor Phillip; both of whom had been very assiduous in procuring words to compose it; and as all the doubtful words are here rejected, it may be depended upon to be correct*. [* This Vocabulary was much enlarged by Captain Hunter.] Allocy, _To stay_. Annegar, _To ask any thing_. A-ra-goon, _A war shield_. Ar-row-an, _Distant, or far off_. Boe, _or_ Bo-y, _Dead_. Bourbillie remul, _Buried_. *Bado-burra, _or_ Burra-bado, _To pour water_. [* It should be observed, that in speaking, Wolle-warre frequently changes the position of his words, as in Bado-burra: so when walking one night from Prospect-Hill to Rose-Hill, we frequently stumbled against the roots, and he exclaimed "Were Wade, and Wade Were," bad wood, or bad roots.] Bado-go-bally-vuida, _I am dry, or I want water to drink_. Barong-boruch, _A belly-full_. Boor emil diow, _To put on_. Bo-me, _To breathe_. Bo-gay, _To dive_. Boorana, _Yesterday_. Boora-Carremay, _A fine day_. Beal, _or_ Bidgeree, _Good_.
