UNDER RULE VII.—TWO CAPITALS.
“The Forth rises on the north side of Benlomond,
and runs easterly.”—Glas.
Geog.
[FORMULE.—Not proper, because the name
“Benlomond” is compounded under
one capital, contrary to the general analogy of other
similar terms. But, according to Rule 7th, “The
compounding of a name under one capital should be
avoided when the general analogy of other similar terms
suggests a separation under two.” Therefore,
“Ben Lomond” should be written with two
capitals and no hyphen.]
