004 | A little stream flowing from "Beinn a' Bhan" to the Forth or "Loch Dubh" or "Loch Laoud". It signifies the stream of the black Corrie, but in reality the Name is not adopted or given from any proper corrie on its course, being merely the dark heather side of the hill, which upon the authorities quoted is probably the origin of the Name. |

004 | A loch on the Forth named Dubh Loch from "Geann Dubh" and "Ben Dhubh" and known as such to the three last named authorities, who do not know "Loch Laoud" or indeed ever heard of the Name although always in the locality. The four first authorities quoted know both Names but give "Loch Laoud" as the proper one, and the old established Name. These authorities are the elder of the persons compared. "Loch Dubh" is the most popular Name and numerous authorities might be quoted as recognising it, but these persons do not profess to know the locality farther than an odd Name here and there. |
