5- Plaid to be the last thing to be put on and the first to be taken off, either in peace or war. It was made to protect the body and the fire-arms against wet, etc. In fighting is was the first thing to be laid aside often enough, but at times it was worn in battle.
Now that we know where to wear it, I guess there will be a number of threads devoted to sources for powderhorns, proper mountings for dress or less formal wear, and practicality of converting them to stealth whisky flasks &c, &c
