[Notes]
CARN NA H-IOLAIRE
Cairn Ealer is given in the 1-inch map. Carn an Fhidhleir which has been accepted by Mr. MacBain, Inverness & this form appears in all other maps. It would be awkward to change it. In any case the popular name sh'' [should] be underlined JMcD. Both Gaelic forms are very doubtful.
AN SGARSOCH
on Plan 104 see page 53
Sgarsoch I understand to be an adj. [adjective] & do not see how the article comes in.
