Protector of Aborigines, David Dunlop applies for blankets

After Protector of Aborigines, David Dunlop makes several applications for blankets for the Wollombi district, he is forwarded only six blankets to distribute between three tribes. These were given to two very aged women and four gins who were nursing mothers. All from the Wollombi tribe.
