The few books or documents belonging to the family of Bwayan or Kudarangan that I have seen are neat and well written. The dialect spoken in Saraya differs a little from that of Magindanao, but in the main they are one and the same dialect. This manuscript is strictly Magindanao in its dialect and in its style. The first two pages of this copy give the genealogy of Kabungsuwan from Mohammed and Adam; it is similar to that of Manuscripts Nos. I and II, and ends with Putri Mamur, the daughter of Sarip Kabungsuwan, who married Pulwa, the first Mohammedan datu of Bwayan. The second part gives the descendants of Pulwa and the genealogy of the rajas of Bwayan. This is, however, incomplete and deficient. It stops at the seventh generation, which is practically midway, and does not distinctly state who were the rajas of Bwayan. It is fuller than Manuscript No. II in giving the descendants of all the sons of Raja Sirungan, but it does not proceed in the main line of descent as far and as fully as Manuscript No. II. The original scroll from which this copy was taken is evidently older than Datu Mastura's copy. LITERAL TRANSLATION OF MANUSCRIPT NO. III PART I ... Mahlayl begot Uknuk, who is Idris.

They begot Sarip Kabungsuwan. Sarip Kabungsuwan begot, in Juhur, Sambgan and a daughter, Mazawang. Some time after that Sarip Kabungsuwan came to Magindanao and married Putri Tunina, whom Tabunaway and Mamalu found inside the bamboo. By Putri Tunina he begot Putri Milagandi and Putri Mamur. Sarip Kabungsuwan brought his children Sambgan and Mazawang to the town of Magindanao. This finishes the book relative to the earlier ancestors. PART II The first ruler of Bwayan was Mamu.
