Note. - In cases of this description where the corruption
and error in orthography are so self evident I would beg
to recommend for Captain Courtney's decision that the
proper spelling be adopted for the Plans, as it is
very seldom any persons can be met with that
know the meaning of the names or their origin, and
generally their authority for spelling is worth no-
thing.
