Mountain Cave in Perthshire.

While climbing Ben More, Perthshire, recently, Mr. Alastair C. McLaren came to a small chasm, which was almost imperceptible. Pushing his way in, he saw a funnel-like opening, and by strenuous endeavours he got to the top, where he found a large cave, which he thinks has never been explored before. He then saw a ray of light, and succeeded in reaching the opening, he emerged on the side of the hill, about one-eighth of a mile from where he had entered.-Evening Gazette (Aberdeen), 10th February, 1912. [Cairngorm Club Journal]
