At Adv.MS.72.2.23, page 458, and Adv.MS.72.2.24, page 549, is the identical subscription: “This English and Gaelic Dictionary consisting of four volumes folio in manuscript half bound was composed by Alexr. McLaurin / Stabler in Edinr. N.B. The English words were taken from Thomas Sheridan’s pronouncing Dictionary in two volumes octavo”.
