It was this Niulus whoemployed Gaodhal (Gael) son of Eighor, a learned and skillful man, tocompose, or rather refine, the language called Bearla Tobbai, which wascommon to the posterity of Niulus, and was afterwards called "Gaodh-ilg"from the said Gaodhal, who composed and improved it, and for his sakealso Niulus called his eldest son "Gaodhal"

Heber Scutt: after his father's death, and a year's stay at Crete,departed thence, leaving some of his people to inherit the island, andwhere some of their posterity likely remain, as the islands harbor novenomous serpents ever since.
