propataire;iehd,  g.f.    There  are  two  games  m 
Uist  called  by  this  name. 

1.  Agume  like  quoits  or  pitchers.  Two 
ì&Tse  stones  or  props  are  set  up  on  end  at  a 
distance  from  eaeh  other  of  about  20  yards. 
The  number  of  players  varies  from  two  to  six. 
1!  more  than  two  play,  they  may  do  so  singrly 
or  in  picked  sides.  'l'he  only  articles  needed 
are  the  props  and  two  flat  pieces  of  stone,  as 
nearly  balanced  as  possible,  wherewith  to 
toss.  The  ^ame  goes  by  pomts,  a  certam 
number.  usually  21.  beina:  agreedon  as  gnnte. 
The  pointing  or  scoring,  which  la  not  reckon- 
ed  in  the  same  wav  auy where  else,  is  as  foU- 
ows  in  Uist.  Tbree  points  if  you  kuock  the 
prop  down  fairly,  one  point  if  that  pitcher  hes 
nearer  the  prop  than  any  other,  one  pomt  if 
your  other  pitcher  lies  nearer  than  any  of  your 
opponent's.  Thus,  if  your  two  qnoits  be  near- 
er  the  prop  than  your  opponent's  two,  you 
have  two  points  ;  if  ouly  one  is  nearer  then 
you  have  only  one  point.  In  the  ease  of  two 
players,  both  stand  at  the  same  prop  and  to.ss 
at  the  opposite  prop  endeavourmg  to  hit  iB 
or  lie  as  near  to  it  as  possible.  In  the  case 
of  sides  (say,  two  on  eaoh  side)  one  raember 
of  each  side  takes  the  stones,  while  the  other 
two  stand  at  theoppositeprop,  and  toss  each 
his  two  quoits  to  the  best  of  his  ability. 
These  are  then  in  turn  tossed  towards  them 
again  by  those  at  the  other  end,  the  game 
counting,  as  usual,  in  points.    ^   .  ^^ 

propataireachd(2\or  leagail  shaighdear  (fel- 
lin«'  »-he  soldier.)  Game  played  on  the  same 
principle  as  skittles.  There  are  two  equal  si- 
des  of  any  number,  usuaUy  about  seven,  and 
each  player  has  a  prop,  which  he  stìcks  in  the 
Itround  just  enough  to  make  it  stand.  Each 
player  Ls  provided  with  two  stones  for  throw- 
ing  at  the  props,  The  side  wbich  wins  fehe 
toss  then  starts  to  knock  as  many  as  possible 
of  their  opponents'  props  down  in  this  way. 
The  first  man  in  the  row  throws  his  two  quoits 
trving  to  knock  as  many  down  as  he  can  ;  his 
nèighbour  foUows,  and  so  on,  tiU  aU  the  row 
have  thrown  their  quoits.  If  they  knock 
down  aU  the  opposing  props,  the  game  is 
theirs  ;  if  not,  their  opponents  start  m  exact- 
ly  the  same  way  to  knock  theirs  down.  If 
they  succeed,  they  win  the  game  ;  if  not,  the 
props  are  set  up  again  and  play  recommen-

name  of  a  water-spirit  which  the  inhabitants 
of  Lewis  used  to-propitiate  by  a  cup  of  ale  in 
the  following  manner.  They  came  to  the 
church  of  St.  Mulway,  each  man  carrying  his 
own  proYÌsions.  Every  family  gave  a  pock  of 
malt,  and  the  whole  was  brewed  into  ale. 
Oue  of  thtìir  number  was  chosen  to  wade  into 
the  sea  up  to  his  waist,  carrying  in  his  hand 
a  cup  fiUed  with  ale.  When  he  reached  a 
properdepth,  he  stood  and  cried  aloud  "Seon- 
aidh,  I  give  thee  this  cup  of  ale,  hoping  thafc 
thou  wilt  be  so  good  as  to  send  us  plenty  of 
seaware  for  enricbing  our  ground  daring  the 


sèsean 

coming  year."  He  then  tbrew  the  ale  into 
the  sea.  This  ceremony  was  performed  in  the 
night-time.  On  his  coming  to  land,  they  all 
repaired  to  church,  where  there  was  acandlo 
burning  on  the  altar.  There  they  stood  still 
for  a  time,  when,on  a  signal  given,  the  candle 
was  put  out,  and  straightway  they  adjourned 
to  the  fields  where  the  nigbt  was  spent 
mirthfully  over  the  ale.  Nexc  morning  they 
returned  to  their  respective  homes,  in  the  be- 
lief  that  they  had  insured  a  plentif ul  crop  for 
the  next  season.

Bpeilean,  s.m.  Uist  game  corresponding  to  tbe 
game  of "  cat  and  bat."  The  nece«sarie3  for 
the  game  are  the  Speil  or  Cat,  the  Driver  or 
Bat,  and  the  Ball  of  worated  or  hair.  Two 
sides  of  equal  uumbers  are  picked,  one  side 
taking  the  first  of  the  batting  and  the  other 
of.tbe  fielding,  as  they  win  or  lose  the  tosi. 

A  hole  is  made  in  the  ground  with  the  heel, 
and  one  end  of  the  Speil  (a  small  piece  of 
wood)  is  put  into  it.  The  ball  rests  in  the  hole 
on  tbe  inner  eud  of  the  speil.  The  first  batter 
strikes  tbe  end  which  protrudes  with  the  dri- 
ver,  thus  sending  the  ball  into  the  air.  While 
the  ball  is  in  tbe  air,  he  sinites  it  witb  all  his 
power,  tbe  object  being  to  drive  it  as  far  as 
possibie  from  tbe  hole.  If  auy  of  the  oppos- 
ing  side  catch  it  before  it  touches  the  ground 
the  striker  is  out,  but  if  no  catcb  is  made  the 
first  fitìlder  to  reach  tbe  ball  gives  a  bowl 
(faireag)  to  tbe  batsmau.  Tbe  iatter  ai?ain 
tirives  the  ball  as  far  as  possible,  and  if  a 
catch  be  made  be  is  out.  If,however,no  catch 
be  made,  the  first  player.of  tbe  opposing  side 
to  reach  the  ball,  throws  tbe  ball  into,  or  as 
near  as  be  cau,  tbe  hole.  This  is  called"  pìc- 
eadh."  If  it  goes  into  the  bole  the  player  is 
out.  If  not,  he  measures  the  length  of  the 
ball  from  the  hole  by  means  of  tbe  bat.  If  it 
is  not  one  bat's  length  he  is  out,  if  it  is  one  or 
more,  he  plays  on  until  be  is  out,  when  an- 
other  member  of  bis  side  comes  in  in  his  place. 
Tbis  coutinues  tiU  one  aide  counts  100,  or  is 
bU  out,  when  the  opposite  side  comes  in.  If 
neither  side  reacbes  the  set  number  of  points, 
whicbever  scores  tbe  highest  is  said  to  be  the 
winner.  Tbis  game  is  fairly  popular  .stili  and 
is  oTie  of  tbe  bealthiest  and  best  of  Uist  games

spidean,  s.m.  Game  which  resembles  closely 
the  common  game  of  *'  pitch  and  toss,"  the 
difference  being  that  buttons  are  always  used 
in  place  of  coms.  A  small  stick  is  set  up  as  a 
"  spid,"  and  a  linedrawn  at  a  distance  of  a- 
bout  10  feeb.  At  this  line  the  players  take 
their  stand.  The  game  is  open  to  any  number 
of  players— in  fact,the  moreplayers  the  better 
the  game.~  Each  player  tosses  his  button 
at  the  spid,  his  object  being  to  come  as  near  it 
as  possible.  He  whose  button  lies  nearest  tho 
sjt^'x/ gathers.the  other  buttons  in  his  hands, 
shakes  them,  and  tìnally  tosses  them  in  the 
air.  AII  which  fall  face  downwards  he  gath- 
ers  and  keeps  ;  the  remainder  are  lifted  by  the 
player  whose  button  lay  second,  and  thrown 
by  liira,  those  falling  face  upwards  being  in 
turii  ciaimed  by  him.  This  continues  till  tha 
buttons  have  all  been  gaiued,  che  first  man  of- 
ten  gebting  a  second  throw  if  the  buttons  last 
so  !<>ng.  The  players  all  bake  their  stand  a- 
grviii  ou  the  liae,  the  last  tosser  of  the  former 
tinie  beiiig  the  fìrst  to  play  this  tiine.and  con- 
tinue  throwing  bill  they  have  lost  all  their 
buttons,  or  are  other*vise  forctìd  to  ilcsist. 

Should  the  ;>pid  be  hib  fairly  by  any  man 
excepb  tho  first,  all  buttons,  no  matter  how 
near,  must  be  lifted  and  re-t08sed.  The  ad- 
vantages  in  beiug  first  man  consist  in  the  fol- 
lowing.  The  tìrst  player  may,  if  he  choose,  re- 
claim  his  toss  by  saying,  "  Cha  luigh  mi  "  (I 
sball  uot  lie,)  but  if  his  toss  be  good  enough, 
he  says  "  Luighidh  mi,"  (I  wiU  lie,)  thus  com- 
pelliiig  all  who  follow  to  "lie,"  no  matter  how 
poor  their  attempt  may  be.    If ,  howeyer,  the

ject  is  seen  in  the  morning,  it  will  be  accom- 
plished  in  the  afternoon  ;  if  at  noon,  on  that 
very  day  ;  if  in  the  evening,  that  very  night  ; 
and  if  after  candles  are  lit,  on  that  night  for 
oertain.  If  a  shroud  is  seen  about  a  person, 
It  foretells  approaching  death;  and  the  time 
cìitismore  or  less  dìstant,  according  to  the 
height  at  which  the  shroud  is  ohserved  on  the 
body.  If  it  be  seen  about  the  middle,  death 
Ì8  not  expected  within  a  twelvemonth  ;  if  as 
high  as  the  head.it  is  not  many  hours  distant. 
To  see  a  apark  of  fire  falling  on  one's  arm, 
foretells  that  a  dead  child  shall  be  seen  in  the 
arms  of  that  person.  To  see  a  chair  empty  at 
at  the  time  a  person  sits  in  it,  is  a  sure  sign 
ot  approaching  death  to  that  person.  Seers 
did  not  observe  supernatural  appearances  at 
the  same  time,  though  they  might  happen  to 
be  in  the  same  apartment ;  but  when  one  of 
them  who  saw  a  vision,  touched  any  numher 
of  his  hrethren,  they  all  eaw  it  as  well  as  the 
first. 

The  foUowing  are  threc  instances  recorded 
by  an  English  nobleman  in  the  17th.  century, 
who,  previous  to  his  going  to  the  Higblands, 
was  one  of  the  sturdiest  unbelievers  in  the 
Becond-sight. 

1.  "  lu  the  year  1652  I  was  trayelling  in  the 
Bij.'hlaiids,  and  a  good  number  of  servants 
with  me,  as  is  usual  there.  One  of  them  go- 
ing  a  little  before  me,  entering  into  a  house 
wnere  I  was  to  stay  all  night,  and  going  hast- 
ily  to  the  door,  he  suddenly  stepped  back  with 
a  screech,  and  did  fall  by  a  stone  which  hit 
his  foot.  I  asked  what  was  the  matter,  for 
he  seemed  to  be  very  much  frighted.  He  told 
me  very  seriously  that  I  sbould  not  lodge  in 
that  house,  because  shortly  a  dead  body  in 
a  coflfin  would  be  carried  out  of  it,  for  many 
were  carrying  it  when  he  was  heard  to  cry. 
I  neglecting  his  words,  and  staying  there,  he 
said  to  the  other  servants  he  was  sorry  for  it, 
and  that  what  he  saw  would  surely  come  to 
pass.  Though  no  sick  person  was  then  there, 
yet  the  landlord  dicd  of  an  apoplectic  fifc  be- 
lore  I  left  the  house." 

2  "  In  Jannary,  1652,  Lieut.-Col.  Alexander 
Munro,  and  I,  Mere  in  the  house  of  one  Wm. 
MacLeod,  of  Ferinlea,  in  the  county  of  Ross. 
Be,  the  landlord,  and  I,  were  sitting  on  three 
chaiis  near  the  fire  ;  aud  in  the  corner  of  the 
great  chimney  were  two  islanders,  who  were 
that  very  night  come  to  the  house,  and  were 
related  to  the  landlord.  While  one  of  them 
was  talking  to  Munro,  I  noticed  the  other 
lookÌDg  oddly  towards  me.  From  his  look, 
and  his  being  an  islander,  I  supposed  him  to 
be  a  seer,  and  asked  him  what  he  stared  afc. 
He  answered  me  hy  desiriug  me  to  rise  from 
the  chair,  for  it  was  an  unlucky  one.  I  asked 
him  why.  He  answered  me,  because  there 
was  a  dead  man  in  the  chair  next  to  me. 
W'ell,  BHÌd  I,  if  he  be  in  the  chair  next  to  me, 
I  may  keep  my  own.  But  whafc  is  the  likeuess 
of  the  man  ?  He  said  he  was  a  tall  man  with 
a  long  grey  coat,  booted,  and  one  of  his  legs 
hanging  over  the  arm  of  the  chair,  aud  his 
heaa  hanging  dead  on  the  other  side,  and  his 
arm  backward,  as  if  it  were  broken,  Therc 
were  some  English  troops  then  quartered 
rear  that  place,  and  there  being  at  that  time 
a  great  fro.st  after  a  thaw,  the  couutry  was 
covered  all  over  with  ice.  Four  or  five  of  the 
English  riding  by  this  house  somo  two  hours 
after  the  vision,  while  we  were  sifcting  by  the 
tìre,  we  hcard  a  great  noisc,  which  pioved  to 
Jùe  thosa  troop ers,  with  the  halp  of  other  ser- 


vants,  carrying  in  one  of  their  number,  who 
had  had  a  very  had  fall,  and  had  his  arm 
broken  ;  and  falling  frequently  into  fits,  they 
brought  him  into  the  hall,  and  set  him  on  the 
very  chair,  and  in  the  very  posture  that  the 
seer  prophesied.  The  man  did  not  die,  though 
he  recovered  with  great  difficulfcy." 

3  "  Among  the  accounts  given  me  by  Sir 
Norman  MacLeod,  there  was  one  worthy  of 
special  notice— There  was  a  gentleman  in  tho 
Isle  of  Harris,  who  was  always  seen  by  the 
seerswith  an  arrow  in  his  thigh.  Such  in  tho 
isle  who  thought  these  prognostications  infall- 
ible,  did  not  doubt  but  he  would  be  shot  in 
the  thigh  before  he  died.  Sir  Norman  told 
me  that  he  heard  it  the  subject  of  their  dis- 
coursefor  many  years.  At  last  he  died  with- 
out  any  such  accident.  Sir  Norman  was  at 
his  hurial  at  St.  Clement's  Church  in  Harria. 
At  the  same  time  the  corpse  of  another  gen- 
tleman  was  brought  to  be  buried  in  the  very 
same  church.  The  friends  on  either  side  came 
to  debate  who  should  first  enter  the  churcb, 
and  in  a  trice  from  words  they  came  to  blows. 
One  of  the  number,  who  was  armed  with  a  bov? 
and  arrows,  let  one  fly  among  them.  (Now 
every  family  in  that  isle  have  their  hurial 
place  in  the  church  in  stone  chests,  and  the 
bodies  are  carried  in  open  biers  feo  the  burial- 
place.)  Sir  Norman  having  appeased  the  tu« 
mult,  one  of  the  arrows  was  found  shot  in  the 
dead  raan's  thigh,  To  tiiis  Sir  Norman  was  a 
witness." — Succinct  accompt  ofiny  Lord  Tar-

a.'l  the  fires  iri  the  parish  were  extinguisi.ed 
and  81  m.irried  men,  being  deemed  tJie  pro- 
per  number  for  eff^'Cting  this  purpose.took  two 
planks  of  wood  an  1  niue  of  them  were  employ- 
ed  by  turns,  who  by  their  repeabed  efforts, 
rubbed  the  planks  agaiast  each  otber,  till  the 
heat  thereof  produced  fire,  aad  from  thi'ì  foro- 
ed  fire  each  faiuily  wa.s  supplied  with  a  new 
fire.  No  sooner  was  the  tìre  kindled  than  a 
pot  tìlled  with  water  was  put  thereou.  wuich 
was  afberwards  sprinkled  on  people  who  had 
the  plague,or  on  cattle  that  h.id  the  murrain,

being  under  evil  iufluence,  all  fires  in  the 
district  between  two  runni«g  streams  were 
extingtiishcHÌ  on  a  get  day.  Then  a  spinning- 
wheel  was  put  in  rootioH,  aad  kept  going  fur- 
iously  until  the  s;'indle  became  heated.  Tin- 
der  or  tow  wbm  appii-d  to  the  bot  spiadle,  fire 
was  thus  procur<-d  aud  distributed  to  all 
households  affected  by  evil  influeDces.  With-

t^This  verb  has  two  other  forms  for  the 
pat  subjunctive,  which  are  used  after  inter- 
roe:  ifcive  antl  negative  particles.  They  are, 
(an  ?  nach  P)toirinn,  ivould  I  (not)  giv-' ;  cha 
toirinn,  I  %vould  not  give  ;  and  (na'n)  Lug- 
ainu,  (lYJ  /  woxdd  giVi'.  These  two  forms  are 
conjugated  as  bheirinn,  in  the  various  ps.'rsons 
— {slng.  Ist.  -inn,  '2m\.  -eadh,  3rd.  -eadb  ;  pl. 
Ist.  -eaiuaid,  2nd.  -eadh,  3rd.  -eadh.) 

The  past  subj.  pas-sive,  bheirteadh,  is  ira- 
persoiiai^and  reqniri..s  a  prepositional  proaoun 
affcer  it  to  distinguish  itfrom  the  .sam'?  tense 
of  bnr.  Bheirteadh  mi,  i  ivas  horn;  bhcirteadh 
dhouih,  {it)  ivas  given  to  me.  The  passive 
voica  has  parallei  impersonal  forma,  as  an 
toirteadh,  would  {it)  be  given,  and  an  tug- 
tadh,  raa  theirteadh,  if  ii  ivould  be  said,  but, 
Ha'n  abairteadh  ;  o  'n  chiteadh,  since  it  would 
be  seen  ;  but,  nach  faicteadh,  woidd  it  7ìot 
be  Sien ;  ged  glieibhtoadh,  though  it  should  be 
got ;  bufc,  mur  faighfceadh  e,  ij  it  should  not  be

The  Druids  gathtred  the   inistletoe  ou  lOtii. 

Pliny,  in  the  16th.  book  of  his  Nat.  Hist.,  saya 

*'  Jl'he  Druids  hold  nothing  iu  such  sacred  re- 

•f>ect  as  the  misLletoe,  and  tlie  tree  ou  which 

it  growa,  proTÌded  it  be  an  oak.      Thi-y  select 

certain  woodsol  o*k,  and  they  do  not  perform 

any  sacred  rite  without  the  leaf  of   that  tree  ; 

00  that  hence  it  is  likely  they  bave  been  calJ- 

ed  Druida,     eiplaining    the     name   from  the 

Greek  drua^  an  oak  ;  Druidse.  oakii'S.     What- 

erer  grows  on  that  tree,  more  than  its  natural 

growth,th#y  think  has  been  seut  from  heaven, 

and  Ì3  a  proof  that  tht  treo  haa  beeu  chosen 

by  God  himself.     Howerer    that    [■^pecies    of 

mistletoe]   is  very    rarely    found,   and   when 

fouud  it  i8  3ou»:ht  after  with  j^reat  devotion, 

aiid  especially  at  the  sixth  moon,  which  is  the 

beijinning'    of    their    moaths  and  years,    and 

when  the  tree  K»s  jMkssed   its  thirtieth  year, 

because    it   has    already     abundaut     vigour, 

tbtìu^h    not    balf-frown.     They    call  it  by  a 

word  sÌKnifyinu  in  th*ir  own  laujcuage,  "  all- 

heal   "  ;  and  having   prepared  sacriflces  and 

feasts    un«ler    the    kr»e,    they  brinj?    up  two 

white  buUa,  whose  horiM  are  then  fiist  bound; 

the  priest  in  a  white  robe  asceads  the  tree, 

anrd  cut«  it  off  with  a  gxjiden  knife  ;  it  is  recei- 

Ted  in  a  white  sh^ei.  Then,  and  not  till  then, 

they  sacrifice  the  victims,    prayiug  that  God 

Would  renrter  hb  gift   nro»pèfous  to  tbose  on 

whom  he  had  bestowed   it.    When  miatletoe

The  ùruisg  had  the  qualities  of  man  and 
epirit  cuTÌously  comraingled.  He  had  a  pecu- 
liar  fondness  for  solitude  at  certain  seasons 
of  the  year.  About  the  end  of  harvest  he  be- 
came  more  sociable,  and  bovered  about  farm- 
yards,  stables  and  cattle-houses.  He  bad  a 
particular  fondness  for  the  products  of  the 
dairy,  and  was  a  fearful  intruder  on  milk- 
maids,  wbo  made  regular  lib  "tions  of  milk  or 
cream  to  charm  him  off,  or  to  procure  his  fa- 
vour  He  could  be  seen  only  by  those  who  had 
the  second  sight;  yet  I  have  heard  of  instances 
wliere  he  mnde  liimself  visible  to  persons  not 
80  gift«ed.  He  is  .s;iid  to  have  been  a  joUy  per- 
sonable  being,  wiih  a  Iroad  blue  bonnet, 
flowiiig  yellow  hair,and  a  long  walking-staff. 
Every  uianor-house  had  its  iiruis',  and  in  the 
kitchen,  close  by  the  fire,  was  a  B^-at  which 
wa-<  left  unoccupied  for  liiui,  Tlie  house  of  a 
proprietor  on  ihe  banks  of  the  Tay  is,  even  to 
this  day,  Lelieved  to  have  been  haunted  by 
thi.<  sprite,  ond  a  partiiular  apartment  there- 
in  has  be^'u  for  ceuturie'j  called Seòmar  Bhrùn- 
aidh  (Lrownie's  room.  )  Wheu  irritated 
through  ueglect  or  disrespectful  tieatment, 
bo  wouid  iiot  hesitate  to  becorae  wantoiily 
mischievous.  He  was  notwicbstanding,  ra- 
ther  gainly  and  good-natured  than  formid- 
ablo.  Though,  on  the  whulH,  a  lazy,louT\ging 
hobgublin,  ho  would  ofctu  bestir  himself  on 
behalf  of  tho-e  who  understood  his  humours, 
aud  suited  themselves  thereto.  When  in  this 
mood,  he  was  known  to  perform  many  ardu- 
ous  exploits  in  kitchen,  barn  and  stable,  with 
marvellous  precision  and  rapidity.  These  kind 
turns  were  done  without  bribe,  fee  or  reward, 
for  the  offer  of  any  one  of  these  would  banisb 
him  for  ever,  Kind  treatment  was  all  thafc 
he  wished  for,  and  it  never  failed  to  procure 
his  favour.  In  the  northern  parts  of  Scot- 
land  the  ùruisg'g  disposition  wai  more  mer- 
ccnary.  Brajid,  in  his  description  of  Zetland, 
observes,  "  that  not  above  forty  or  fifty  yeara 
ago  aluiost  every  family  had  a  browuie,  or 
evil  spirit'  so  called,  wbich  served  them,  to 
which  tbey  gave  a  sacrifice  for  his  service  ; 
as  when  they  churned  their  uiilk,  they  took 
a  part  thereof,  and  eprinkled  every^corner  of 
the  house  with  it  for  Brownie's  use  flikewise, 
when  they  brewed,  they  had  a  stone  which 
they  called  Brownie's  stane,  wherein  there 
was  a  little  bole,  into  which  they  poured  .some 
wort  for  a  sacrifice  to  Brownie,  They  also  had 
stacks  of  corn  which  they  called  Brownie'a 
stacks,  which,  though  they  were  not  bound 
wirh  straw  ropes,  or  in  any  way  fenced  as 
otner  stacks  used  to  be,yet  the  greatest  storm 
of  wind  was  not  able  to  blow  away  straw  off 
thein."  The  browuies  seldom  discoursed 
w;th  man,  but  they  hell  frequent  and  affect- 
ionate  converse  with  one  another,    They  had

]Pj?Op©l?   1^3.13:109 


It  must  be  borne  in  mina  that  Gaelic  snr- 
names,  in  the  Engrlish  sen^e.  fire  not  general- 
ly  in  use,  at  least  in  colloqui&l  Oaelic,  except 
when  speakin'j;  of  strangers.  Every  one  liv- 
ìììg  in  a  Gaelic-speaking  district  has  a  local 
name  dtscribiug  his  trade  or  some  phy.sical 
peculiarity  as,  Donnachadh  reamhar,  An  eaor, 
dtc.  Sometimes  they  are  named  after  the  place 
they  liyed  in  last,  or  were  born  in,  as,  Au 
t-Araericanach,  &c.  If  the  peraon  named  is 
of  a  family  long  settled  in  the  district  he  will 
probably  be  named  aft«r  his  father  or  grand- 
fatber,  as  Seumas  a'  phiobair,  (the  piper's 
JaiiMs.)  Where  a  person's  raother  isanatire 
m.\rried  to  an  out.sider,  he  may  be  called  after 
her,  as  Domhnall  Ciorstan.  Thus  a  Gaelic 
student  whose  friend  is  plain  John  MacDon- 
ald  in  the  city,  must  not  be  eurprised  when 
he  meets  him  at  home,  to  hear  bis  compan- 
lons  speak  of  him  as,  lain  Mhurcfaaidh 
Dhomhnuill  Alsksdair  !  Tbe  so!e  obj<Krt  of 
Gaelic  surnames  i3  to  make  the  identity  of  the 
person  speken  of  as  clear  as  posaible  througfh 
the  spcaKer  remÌHding  bis  hearers  by  means  of 
his  name  every  time  it  is  BtentioBdd,  to  whom 
or  where  he  "  belonga." 

Considerable  care  must  be  ex<*rci»e<l  ìn  trans- 
latÌDg  En^lisb  surnames  into  Gaelic,  for  exam- 
rte,  Donald  Black  is  Domhnall  Mac  a'  GhiUe 
Dhuibh.  The  literal  translatioa,  r-omhoall 
Dubh,  may,  if  u.sed,  prove  very  mi«ÌeadÌDg,  for 
tLat  is  much  more  Ìikely  to  betJ**'  locaJ  appel- 
■tioD  of  Donald  Cameron  or  Donald  Snaitb,  both 
of  whom  have  dark  hair,  than  of  Doimld  Blaek 
who  may  eyen  be  fair  and  locally  kno^n  as 
Dorahnall  Bàn,  but  more  probably  as  Dumh- 
nall  Alasdair  or  Domhnall  lain.  Domlinall 
Dubh  is  also  a  familiar  Gaslic  name  for  the 
deTill 


The  following;  list  of  names  is  the  resnlt  of 
the  conipiler'K  colkrting  from  all  available 
sources  fr.«m  1880  to  1911.  The  names  are  not 
ineerte'I  here  with  the  idea  of  eetting  forth  any 
new  theory  regarding  the  correct  form  of  any 
Gaelic  name,  but  it  is  uierely  an  attempt  to 
gather  into  one  aiphHbetical  li»t,  from  all  the 
newspapers,  niagazine'?,  books,  &c.  in  whicb 
they  have  appeared.  the  most  up-to-date  forma 
usert  by  the  best  Gaelic  scholars.  A  few  of 
the  names  have  h^en  taken  down  orally  by  the 
compiler,  but,  owing  to  the  authorities  for  the 
remainder  not  having  been  noted  as  the  list 
was  collecteii.  it  is  impo-jsible  to  give  here  the 
»«urce  whence  each  was  obtairved.  The  ab- 
sence  of  such  a  list  from  all  otber  G&elic  dic- 
tionaries  is  a  cause  of  continual  disappointment 
to  Gaelic  students.  Much  pains  haa  been  takea 
to  secure  accuracy,  and  Dr.  W.  J.  Wateon, 
Edinburgh,  has  kindly  revised  and  added  to 
the  list.  Dr.  Watson's  additions  are  marked  *, 
and  are  original  Gaelic  forms  taken  from  the 
niouths  of  the  people— not  Ga<?Hc  translationg 
of  Anglicized  forins.  Quotation*  from  the  Ord- 
nan^e  Sur^ey  Maps,  are  marked  OSM. 

The  list  may  be  added  to  in  any  Gaelic- 
speaking  district,  but  care  must  be  taken  to 
spell  the  nam-es  exactly  as  they  sound,  and  not 
accord'ng  to  what  either  the  collector  or  native 
iuformant  thiitk  they  mfan. 

As  quiLe  20  Gaelic  students  reqnire  the 
Gaelic  forra  of  an  English  narae  to  every  ona 
who  requires  the  English  forra  of  a  Gaelic  one, 
tèe  EBglish  forms  are  bere  placed  first.

worsted  and  brought  to  submission.  After 
this  he  became  the  most  faithful  friend  and 
ally  of  Fingal.  He  was  ardenfcly  fond  of  a 
warrior's  reputation,  and  somatimes,  in  the 
absence  of  the  Caledonian  chief,  he  was  en- 
trusted  wifch  the  coramand  of  tlie  Fingalian 
forces,  but  his  valour  was  too  iuipetuous  for 
conducfcing  an  army.  He  ovred  his  deafch  to 
the  following  circumstance.  A  party  of  Fin- 
galianSjhaving  gone  to  plunder  the  hostile  isle 
of  Ifreòine,  were  followed,  soma  short  time 
after,  by  Gaul,  without  any  attendants.  He

the  exasperated  inhabitants,  agj.inst  whom, 
with  his  back  to  a  tree,  he  maintained  a  des- 
perate  cmflict,  until,  amazed  at  his  valour, 
and  afraid  of  his  strength,  they  roUed  a  masa 
of  rock  down  upon  hira  which  brokehis  thigh. 
He  thus  became  incapable  o(  further  resist- 
ance,  and  fell  a  sacrifice  to  his  eneuiies.

As  the  length  of  above  list  may  indiice  thoughtless 
persons  to  think  that  I  am  ^^  making  agoodthing"  out 
of  the  publication  of  this  Dictionary  (and  in  fact  such  a 
happy  state  of  things  has  been  hinted  to  me  several  times) 
I  feel  that  some  explanation  is  due  from  me. 

Quite  another  two  pages  eould  be  fìlled  with  the 
names  of  those  who  have  only  paid  a  small  proportion 
of  their  subscriptions,  or  who  have  paid  nothing  at  all, 
in  spite  of  many  urgent  applications  for  payment.  I 
fixed  the  price  of  the  parts  at  6|d.  each,  post  free,  being 
the  actual  cost  of  materials  used,  not  including  repairs  to 
machinery,  &c.,  working  hard  all  the  hest  years  of  my  lifefor 
henefit  of  Gaelic  students  quite  free  of  charge.  Many 
complained  that  they  could  not  pay  so  much  as  6|d.  a 
part,  which  represented  the  enormous  sum  of  l|d.  per 
month  !  why  any  ordinary  individual  spends  more  than 
that  in  matches  or  ink.  On  making  an  extract  of  the 
amount  of  unpaid  subscriptions  at  time  of  going  to  press, 
I  was  dismayed  to  find  it  reached  a  total  of  £72,  \s.  3c?. 

I  think  I  have  made  it  plain  now  that  it  is  the 
Gaelic-reading  public  who  have  ^'  made  a  good  thing''  of 
this  Gaelic   Dictionary,  and  not 

THE  UNFOETUNATE  COMPILEK.
