Transcriber's notes
This page has been poorly folded before copying and two key words have been cut off: the last word/s of the respective meanings of Claggan Sollas and Rudha nan Oban. I have consulted a Gaelic dictionary to obtain English translations for "Claggan [Claigeann]" and "Rudha".Transcribers who have contributed to this page.
