Editorial notes
1. On 20 December 1773 Paton had sent Pennant a transcription of passages relating to the Maclean family from William Buchanan's An historical and genealogical essay upon the family and surname of Buchanan. To which is added A brief enquiry into the genealogy and present state of ancient Scottish surnames, and more particularly of the Highland clans (1723).
