eng On SWA Series 1966 Skin 2318 Leonardville Find the entry 'Hold Gasgeis' No. 3, a billing (and ruling) of the name that is usually entered as 'Hoagosgeis' No. 3, so on SWA Series 1976 Skin 2318 DD van Deventer, scale 1:50 000, although the horn also appears to be 'housgous'. The 'hold-' and the 'gas' are both formations in Afrikaans direction. Look further th ** 554-5, for the spread of one of the oldest farms in the District of Gobabis. The solution is still being sought.

afr Op SWA-reeks 1966 vel 2318 leonardville vind ons die inskrywing 'Hou- gasgeis' nr 3, ’n wisselspelling (en -uitspraak) van die naam wat gewoonlik ingeskryf word as 'Hoagosgeis' nr 3, so ook nog op SWA-reeks 1976 vel 2318 DD Van Deventer, skaal 1:50 000, hoewel die gehug daar ook ver- vormd voorkom as 'Hougasgous'. Die 'Hou-' en die '-gas-' is albei ver- vormings in Afrikaanse rigting. Kyk verder TH A** 554-5, vir die bespre- king van een van die oudste plase in die distrik van Gobabis. Die oplossing word nog gesoek.
