Transcriber's notes
King's Law
What I have transcribed as "***" is a series of 3 symbols like x's each with 4 dots in the interstices that I have interpreted as asterisks.
David Braidwood. I think these 3 symbols indicate text that is missed out from the quote from the Statistical Account.
Ian Muirhead: You may be right. I've found the second reference on p575. Not knowing what trap is I assumed that it was a definition. Your explanation makes sense.

Ordnance Survey - Lanark county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Lanark, which is in the west of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
