The doubt is on this latter
name, on the letter a
No 2 is to a house near
the Sea
No 1 is to a house, inland
and about three miles father North

Spelling of No. 1 adopted
HWL

Should we retian the
letter a in the name
marked 2

In this case I would
recommend the a to be
deleted & adopt one
uniform spelling thus
"Ballimenach"
please to cause the
Name Book and Plan to be corrected accordingly
