[Notes to Tom na h-Uirean:]
Earrainn is not Uiran
as it is not known it is better
to give the form as given by the authorities
with a corrected spelling - Caol ri Caol
The probabilities to be entered [Initialled] BHM
This is rather too much changed
from what the authorities give
it is much better write what they give
than change the name altogether
as is now done.
