Sheets to this name Craig
Chaolishie which is the cor-
rect name either of the hill
or of a cliff on the South side
of it; I may perhaps be

and name lists or name sheets
forwarded to Southampton in
May last with reference to my
alterations in names.

recent & present usage
the name Creag Chaol-innse
applies not merely to the
cliff but to the whole hill
erroneously called Creag
Sgoilte by the Examiner.
