William Norman Collins in Ardersier - 30 June, 1915

from Letter from Norman Collins to his family, 1 July 1915, page 52:

Yesterday there were some sports here... The finest sight I have ever seen was 20 pipers and 10 drummers in full Seaforth uniform marching up and down the field with their sporrans and kilt flying, plaids etc and what a row they made! The pipes do stir the blood.
