land: there was much moorland and wide woods, and a
broad space between fells and firths, seal-hunting in plenty,
and good fishing. But as they spied out the land south-
wards along the sea, they found before them a large firth
and, turning inwards along this firth, they stayed not their
going till they found their companions, Grim the Halogalander and the rest. A joyful meeting was there. They told
Skallagrim of his father's death, and how Kveldulf had come
to land there, and they had buried him. Then they led
Skallagrim to the place, and it seemed to him that thereabouts would be a good spot to build a homestead. He
then went away, and back to his shipmates; and for that
winter each party remained where they had come to land.
Then Skallagrim took land between fells and firths, all
the moors out to Seal-loch, and the upper land to Borgarhraun, and southwards to Hafnar-fell, and all that land
from the watershed to the sea. Next spring he moved his
ship southwards to the firth, and into the creek close to
where Kveldulf came to land; and there he set his homestead, and called it Borg, and the firth Borgar-firth, and so
too the country-side further up they named after the firth.
To Grim the Halogalander he gave dwelling-place south of Borgar-firth, on the shore named Hvanneyrr. A little beyond this a bay of no great size cuts into the land. There they found many ducks, wherefore they called it Duck-kyle, and the river that fell into the sea there Duck-kyle-river. From this river to the river called Grims-river, the land stretching upwards between them Grim had. That same spring, as Skallagrim had his cattle driven inwards along the sea, they came to a small ness where they caught some swans, so they called it Swan-ness. Skallagrim gave land to his shipmates. The land between Long-river and Hafsbrook he gave to Ani, who dwelt at Anabrekka. His son was Aunund Sjoni. About this was the controversy of Thorstein and Tongue Odd.
Grani dwelt at Granastead on Digraness. To Thorbjorn Krum he gave the land by Gufu-river upward, and to Thord of Beigaldi. Krum dwelt at Krums - hills, but Thord at Beigaldi. To Thorir Giant and his brothers he gave land upwards from Einkunnir and the outer part by Long-river. Thorir Giant dwelt at Giantstead. His
