| Notes 2 | "An uair a thainig muinntir tigh-soluis na Sgeire-moire an toiseach doThirithe, b'e feadhainnGhallda bh'annta, nach fhaca breacan riamh. Bha Mairi Uisdein 'na nighinn ghlain,speisealta,--math air sniomh 's air deilbh--'s rinn i dhaibh am breacan d'an deachaidh an t-oran a dheanamh." |
| Notes 3 | "Rugadh Eoghan MacColla aig taobh Loch-fine, an Earra-ghaidheal, anns a' bhliadhna 1812. Thainig e do Chanada an uair bha e ochd bliadhna fichead a dh'aois; chaochail e an Toronto an 1898. Rinn e moran de dh'orain, agus chaidh an cur a mach ann an leabhar uair us uair; ach chan eil eolas farsuing a shaothair anns an duthaich so idir." |
