Tragedy of a white child treasured by an Aboriginal tribe near the Kiewa river and the Mitta Mitta. She was thought to be the daughter of a couple who had died and the local station owner's wife determines to rescue her. The young English jackeroo she enlists to 'rescue' the child during a corroboree is killed in the attempt, as is the child. Information on decline in Aboriginal population is given in passing. (PB)
