[MR] Atlantia's Internal Letter of Acceptances and Returns Now Available

[E L Wimett]

In point of fact, the original blazon had the triquetra as a tertiary on the
bunches, but the depiction actually has it as a charge overall.  The blazon
on that letter reflects that.

Just as a minor correction to one of the return texts:

    Muirenn ingen A/eda. New device. Argent, two bunches of grapes
    purpure, slips entwined and leaved vert, overall a triquetra
    inverted Or.  The blazon awkwardness represented some serious
    stylistic problems.  The design submitted relies to an excessive
    extent on a particular interlacing of the vines which cannot
    readily guarantee that this emblazon would be reproduced by the
    blazon as required by the rules. Also, the triquetra lies almost
    entirely on the argent field, it violates our rules on contrast.

It does not matter how much of the triquetra lies on the argent field as
long as any of it does; all overall charges must have good contrast with
the field.
