This is only a Small Stream and "Water of Bogie" is considered to be the proper name to be written on Plans: It is called in the district by both names and from its small size I prefer writing "Water of Bogie."
[Signed] E.H. Courtney Capt. R.E. [Captain Royal Engineers]

This may be all true but the stream is almost universally called "The Bogie", no native would ever think of saying the Water of Bogie or the River Bogie. JMcD James McDonald [Royal engineers]
