. . . . "the Banks of the Hawkesbury, set off at the latter end
"of the last month, with a party of officers, by land to Broken-bay,
"where they got on loan the Colonial schooner, and continued in her
"for two days, sailing up that pleasant river; but, finding her
"progress too slow, they quitted her for some boats which had accompanied
"them; and, by the first of this month, had reached
"as high up as some farms which had lately been evacuated
"in consequence of the depredations that the owners of them had
"been exposed to from numerous parties of natives. The ground
"hereabout was carefully examined, to see if it would admit
