Transcriber's notes
The spelling "Clady" is used on the map sheet, but "Cladey" on this page.That part of Description for "The Gables" beginning "Sir Alexander Wallace says" has been written sideways in the "Object" column but seems clearly intended as a continuation of Description and is transcribed as such.
