Original Narrative:
- The Falls of Lochy: The narrow vale of Glenlochy, in Perthshire, through which the Lochy flows towards
its junction with the Dochart at Killin , presents several points of
high and varied attraction to the eye of the lover of the wildly
picturesque; particularly at the spot where the river suddenly emerges,
in a series of falls, from the thickly wooded defile through which it
has long travelled, and, after seeming to chafe away all its previous
restlessness in one angry effort, assumes the aspect of a calm and
gently flowing lowland river, as it approaches to the embrace of its
more lively sister -stream from Glendochart.
