Billabong n , a cut-off loop of a river, replenished only by floods. The word derives from billa - creek and bong - dead: meaning a portion of a river that is no longer running. The word (as bilabang ) comes from the Wiradjuri language which is one of the largest language groupings in New South Wales. Wiradjuri country in the central southern region of NSW includes some of the larger river systems of New South Wales including the Murray, the Murrumbidgee, the Lachlan and the Macquarie. The word is first recorded in 1836 by TL Mitchell in his Three Expeditions Eastern Australia as follows: "The name this stream receives from the natives here, is Billibang." In The Australian Language , 1966, Sidney J Baker at p320 states that the word billa has given us billy (hence billycan, billypot) and the word bang survives in the slang go bung , to fail, to become worthless. The word has been glimpsed in the colourful phrases: "I've tasted better stuff in a billabong full of dead wallaroos" or "It's as interesting as a billabong full of dead goannas" and "as Australian as the billabongs". The word was featured in the famous Waltzing Matilda by AB Banjo Paterson: Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong;

Mary Grant Bruce Australian (1878- 1958) In her own lifetime, Mary Grant Bruce who was born at Sale, in the state of Victoria, Australia on 24 May 1878, was regarded as Australia's most popular author. She dominated Australian children's literature for the first half of this century. Her Irish born father, Eyre Lewis Bruce, was a pioneer surveyor in Gippsland, part of Victoria. In 1870 he had married Mary Whittakers, the daughter of William Whittakers. Mary as a little girl spent much time at Heyfield, a Gippsland cattle station (ranch) managed by one of her uncles, Charles Whittakers. No doubt her childhood experience of life on both properties provided the general background for the early "Billabong" books, at least. As a child, Mary Grant Bruce was devoted to her father and to her older brother Patrick, who died tragically in 1885, as a result of a shooting accident. Mary was sent to stay with her grandparents at Fern Hill on an extended visit. It was here that she began to write poems and stories at the age of the seven. She received a firm grounding in language from her mother, but her formal schooling began at the age of ten, in a private school run by Miss Beausire who encouraged her to enter the examination of the Melbourne Shakespeare Society, she won First price on 1895, 1897 and 1898.
