Note 272 — Chapter VI · THE TRIBE IN SCOTLAND.
Reading edition
‘The tenants, particularly of arable farms, have but small possessions, only the fourth part of a farm, or what is called here a Horsegang’ (Stat. Acc. of Kilmartin, viii. 97). In the Craignish papers it is termed a quarter or Horsegang, and an eight shilling and eight-penny land.
