Good ole Calum - he has a wonderfully made cairn in Badenoch near Cluny castle - where he was personal piper to Cluny during the mid to late nineteenth-century. His pipes are at the Clan Macpherson Museum and House in Newtonmore.

Really! i didn't know that. It's too bad that they aren't being played by someone, pipes die when they are left to dry out. Any idea who the pipe maker was?

No clue, but I can find out by asking the current museum curator in Newtonmore. I'll get back with you.
