81 (IX 3), and his | younger brother LelElg'imlihis (IX 4). And 

 ^nEinSgwis (IX 1) was taken by HamesElal (VII 3) | to take his 

 place in the numaym SenLlEm; and he | took on the other side 

 K !wak IwabalasEme^ (IX 3) to take his place in the | numaym 



85 Laalax' s^Endayo ; and now the name of ^nEmogwis (IX 1), || the son 

 of ^maxulag'ilis (VIII 2) and Llaleh^ak" (VIII 1), was HamesEhil 

 (IX 1) ; I and the name of K !wak IwabalasEme^ (IX 3) was Ewanux"- 

 dze (IX 3) in the numaym | Laahix's^Eudayo; and K!wak!wa- 

 balasEme^ (IX 3) also had | two seats, as he took the seat of the 

 father (VI 2) of his | mother', Le^lenox" (VII 1), among the
