Transcriber's notes
LOW KIRKCONNELBUSH - considerable Descriptive text is lost in the image at the binding. In the Descriptive notes there is a mention of '24 lbs per stone' - I think this may be a definition of the 'stone'. The text lost in the binding might clarify this. The CA designation of Thomas Matheson (signee) may also be lost in the binding.Transcribers who have contributed to this page.
