290. _Macfarlane's Geographical Collection._--In almost every work
treating of the history and topographical antiquities of Scotland, we
are referred to _Macfarlane's Geographical Collection_, preserved in the
Advocates' Library, Edinburgh. This MS., and its author, are very little
known, except by name, _benorth the Tay_, notwithstanding they are so
often quoted. I should be glad if any of your correspondents would give
me any information regarding the extent of country embraced, _i.e._
parishes, counties, &c., and if any part of it has been published _per
se_, and when, and where.
