11th February 1862
Mr Hannay who examined
the work south of Sheet 24
states the hill on the S.W. [South West]
of trace 13 sheet 24 to be
"Craig of Balintore", and
as you state it to be
"Balintore Hill" have
the goodness to state which

Sir
The names being
synonymous are used
indiscriminately by the
same persons, but the
general custom of the
district is in favour
of Mr Hannay's
method, which had
better be adopted.
