Transcriber's notes

Re CREAG A' CHALLTUINN, the Descriptive Remarks on the origin of the name has "Kazle Rock", I believe it is "Hazel Rock". In addition, the abbreviation after Astley I read as misformed 'o' and Pro for Proprietor? Abbreviation, 'Pro' appears more clearly in the following pages e.g. see Page 53.
