Notes:
▪ Reminder:
the first transcription has an introduction (click link to see it).
▪ This
session meeting was the first in 1735, over a year after the
previous meeting.
▪ In
the lists of names, sometimes there are commas, sometimes not.
I've added semi-colons to separate the different farms/touns where
miscreants are named, but see below the transcript for a re-sorted
list.
▪ "Each
End" below refers to the Two Ends of Coll that were in Campbell
tenure.
