Dear Leahy,
I see you are on O.S. [Ordnance Survey] in Scotland
and judge you are the proper man to apply
to in undermentioned matter or if not
can forward it to the proper man.
"In Perthshire 6" Survey-
Lat [Latitude] 56:35:40 Long [Longitude] 3°25'20"
you will find a house marked Ballied.
I am the owner thereof and wish that
in future republications the name
should be changed to Achalader.
As you will probably want some solid
reason for making an alteration -. We have been for
a very long time and are generally known as
Campbells of Achalader. The place we take
this name from is now a ruin on the banks of
Loch Tay (if a stone exists at all of the
old place). When Ballied came into
our hands an ancestor entailed it in
1788 with the proviso that the owner should
continue to be known as Campbell of
Achalader. The Estate indeed is known
by that name but no effective steps
have ever been taken to alter the name of the
house and in view of a penal clause in
the entail I want to take all possible steps
against the name Achalader being dropped
in the future. If you think further evidence
is necessary to authorize the Survey
