Trace 4
The Shank. This name
is entered twice in Name
Sheet as if applying to
different hills on this plan
Are there two hills of
this name? and if so
let the name be written
on traces. Are there no
distinctive terms or desig-
-nations to distinguish
the one from the other?
Trace 5
Cowcleuch Burn. is there
not an object in the
vicinity of this burn
called Cow Cleuch?
Sheet 127 No. 10 Trace 2
Reacleuch Burn. Is there
not an object in the vicinity
of this burn called Rea Cleuch?
Trace 4
Middlehill Burn.This
name is written on trace
but not entered in Name
Sheets. Descriptive Rks.[Remarks]
to be written
Sheet 127 No. 11
Trace 1
Darn Stripe is written
on this trace but on trace 3
of Sheet 127 No. 10 is written
Darncleuch Burn to the
same object. Will you
have the goodness to look
to this and ascertain which
name is correct.

[Right hand side of this page]
[The Shank]
There is only one hill called
The Shank & on this trace,therefore
more than one description would
be superfluous

[Cowcleuch Burn]
None

[Reacleuch Burn]
None

[Middlehill Burn]
Name sheet now written

[Darn Stripe]
Darn Stripe is proper

Trace 2
Innerdownie. As this name
does not very clearly imply
Hill Should not the
word "Hill" be added?
Is it not generally called
Innerdownie Hill?
It is written "Innerdownie
Hill" on the Co. [County] maps, which
I consider to be the correct
mode.
Sheet 127 No. 12
Trace 2
Howcleuch Burn The same
remarK applies to this as
to Cowcleuch Burn and
Reacleuch Burn - see opposite page

Remark on Examination
Sheet 118 No. 16
Trace 6

of the detail at the point (A)
see remark in pencil.
Sheet 127 No. 8
Trace 6
Test that portion of River Law
estate which is correct the portion

Please to have these Remarks attended to as soon as
possible; Sapper Kiernan, would be the best person
to tend to them.

[Right hand side of this page]
[Innerdownie]
It is never called Innerdownie
Hill. It is generally known by the
name Innerdownie,which I
adopted. Innerdownie hill would
appear better but it is never called
so

[Howcleuch Burn]
This is Known by the name
How Cleuch & now written

[point A]
I was creditably given to
understand by Mr Marr that this
point had been made all right
in the common worK which made
me loth to interfere with what
I considered finally settled. It was
extremely foggy while I was listing the
worK about the station on Sim's Hill
else I would not fail to see this mistake
The portion of the river in red is
correct, agreeing with the turnpike
road
