Reading edition

Gajére enumerated to me also the following places as lying towards the north-west of our road in the direction of Marádi: viz., Wála, Golkúka, Harumáwa, Gindáwa, Majéne, Kóre, Dándabu, Kúbdu (a large place belonging to Astáfidet), Sámia maigíjje, Rubákia, Furagírke, Agé, Kukúta, Kafí mayáki (which approaches within a little distance of Tindúkku, the place I mentioned above). Further southward, on the west side of our route, were mentioned Súruru and Kofí; to the east, Sámia maidánkay. On inquiring after Sámia Enkóra, a place mentioned in an itinerary sent home by Mr. Richardson during his first journey, I learnt that it lies on an eastern road leading from Damerghú to Tasáwa by the following stations (the march being slow from Tágelel):—Baíbay, Kamé, Sámia Elkóra (this is said to be the right form of the name), Dándu, Gomariyúma, Tasáwa.
