256 APPENDIX I. 



The second sentence runs thus : — 



Teworssele : prinafate gasawala : uke : ese : perekle : 

 tewete : artto aparu : se apame : teluze 



Excepting the first two words, which are the 

 same as in the first sentence, and the name of 

 the town PereMe, the whole has still to be made 

 out. 



The third sentence is very imperfectly pre- 

 served, and is quite obscure. 



No. 23. At Armootlee, near Limy r a. 



esedeplilmeye : meyadu : tese : meite : afauae : ^opa euwe 



Esedeplumes family ? herein may bury in tomb his 

 se ene : epi : poitu mee : q/aue : tese : acfcidauale 



for who buries here let him pay a fine 



No. 24. Near Armootlee. 



esedeplumeye : meyadu : tese : meite afauae : gopa eweue : 

 Esedeplumes family ? herein may bury in tomb of them } 

 mee : afauae tese : acZadauale : 



who buries here let him pay a fine 



The close resemblance of these two inscrip- 

 tions is very remarkable. Of the latter there 

 are two copies, taken by Mr. Daniell and Mr. 

 Forbes ; from the comparison of these with one 

 another and with the other inscription, the ver- 

 sion given above is made up.
