I'm afraid Jundabil has given poor little Windiljra over to rap«

and prostitution, (Yes, he had.) I warned him and Halbin on

Sunday (3/9/22) not to take her away from the siding where she

was comparatively safe amongst nmbers, but Jundabil is a bad old

man and he has long bean jealous of imungurra using his dao^ter

mini for prostitution, as Wlnl has to feed old Amungurra

now poor little Windilya is saorifieod. She is a nervous, hi^iy

strung child, has been so as a little tot on the west coast, and%

I fear she will die even more lulokly than Inja-ambi. I hope -ttt

thing will be done to prevent this wickedness going on as each

girl child reaches puberty she is raped and prestituted along theLine, but not at Ooldea - Jinadhanu, lalanuru, lini and new this

poor child. Windilya • her newer name is Bllda-ana, The low

whites effersd her food and oaJco to expose her person.
