Muirhead provides a detailed information regarding classes and information about class names and totems, noting that Mr Craig might have made an error concerning them. Muirhead admits that Aborigines would answer questions if you attended a Bora (or Cunbah [?] ) with them, 'therefore there may be some thing in Mr Craig's point'.
