Extract

I send herewith a drawing of what is supposed to have been a vitrified fort on the S. W. end of the island of Bute, and which still goes by the name of Dunagoyle. I am obliged for this elegant and accurate plan to Sir David Dalrymple, one of the lords of Session, who was so good as to transmit at the same time one of the vitrified stones, of which parts of the wall were composed.
