that is true. For Abraham had com- 

 pleted 60 years when Partholon occupied 

 Ireland, and there are 942 years from 

 Abraham backwards to the Flood, i.e. 

 the sixty of Abraham's age in addition 

 to the former sixty, which makes [102?] 

 besides the 900, making 1002 years, so 

 that it is evident therefrom that from 

 the Flood to the arrival of Partholon in 

 Ireland is 1002 years. 2658 years from 

 the beginning of the world tUl Partho- 

 lon came to Ireland. 2600 years all 

 bat two from Adam to Abraham.
