Note - With respect to the spelling of Leggie, Foggie and Mallie's Mr silver is the only authority that can be reckoned good, and he considers the names as given above to be correct, but according to Jamieson Mally's, Leggy, and Foggie or Foggy is the correct orthography. According to an edition of Burn's Poems in my possession he appears to have been in favour of the lie in most cases. Will Captain Courtney R.E. [Royal Engineers] please So decided on the above names? B. Render. Corp. R.E. [Corporal Royal Engineers]
"Poor Willie, wi’ his bow-kail runt,
Was brunt wi’ primsie Mallie;
And Mallie, nae doubt, took the drunt,
To be compared to Willie". (Burns. Halloween)
