Sir, I am in receipt of your letter of the 10th Inst. [Instant] and its inclosure from Mr. Anderson of Luscar, respecting the desired alteration of the name Goukhall to Clunehall on the Ordnance Map. The former name appears to be in popular use, & therefore I think it would be well to obtain the consent of the proprietor of Clune, Sir Thomas Buchan Hepburn to the alteration [upon] receiving which I will cause the name to be changed, if not already engraved.

I am Sir
Your Obedient Servant
J. Bayly Capt R.E. [Captain, Royal Engineers]
