Transcriber's notes
In the spelling section for Dun Daugh, the name was originally written Duing Daugh, but the "g" of Duing has been scored out and the error initialled by JM. "Dun" has been written in above "Duing", but since the remainder of the name - "Duin" - is not scored out, I have assumed that this is the form that should appear on the following two lines.Under the "Authorities for spelling" and "Situation" columns, and with the source underlined, derivations are given.
