Scottish Land-Names: Their Origin and Meaning (Classic Reprint)Excerpt from Scottish Land-Names: Their Origin and Meaning I have, it is needless to say, derived much assistance from the writings of the scholars above mentioned, as well as from those of Professors Rhys and W. W. Skeat, and the late Dr Skene. I have also availed myself largely of the volume on Scottish place-names lately published by the Rev. J. Johnston, of Falkirk, who has rendered good service to students by the extensive list which he has compiled.
