    of them. The land in Tarmon is very hilly and [?] and grows a great deal of rushes. The houses that were long ago were made of mud. and there were no chimneys on them or only a hole in the roof to let the smoke out. The people that were in this district long ago used not go to the bog for turf because they used to make mud-turf at home. Tarmon district is not very big.
