Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Blackhalls of That Ilk and Barra: Hereditary Coroners and Foresters of the Garioch
The spelling of proper names (with the exception of that of Blackball, in which case the more recent mode is usually followed), will be found to vary in these records. The form of words used in the original documents has, as a rule, been retained, as impressing more vividly on the mind the reality and actual occurrence of events long past, and the historical existence of persons also long dead. To be vague in the apprehension of any history, is to lose the full force of such teaching as it may contain, and in an age of scepticism, a fact, if remote, requires all the corroboration possible.
