CONTEMPORARY OPINION
ME GENUINE SCOTTISH TARrAN

THE GENUINE SCOTTISH TARTANS
The genuine tartans are known and
numbered, and although doubts have
been cast on the dates OF their origin,
are OF undeniable antiquity. The Dukeof
Argyll, who adds the prestige Of a
scholar to the authority OF a great
Highland chief, has traced certain here
sizes to an article in the Scots Maga-
zine OF last century. The writer would
have it that the tartan was not so very
much older than his own article, OF, at
least that II was q child of the eigh-
teenth century. The magazine must
have had a careless editor, for any
tincture Of common knowledge might
have rejected that thesis. Marvells
fine HOratian ode makes mention Of the
Scot covering behind his parti-colored
plaid, and though what the poet wrote
is no more evidence than what the sol
der said, the epithet comes as near TO
saying tartan" as the exigencies Of
meter permit Plainly the material
was accepted as distinctly Scotch by
the secretary OF the general who had
invaded the North and defeated the
Scots-encumbered. It is true, by their
clergymen--at Dunbar. Nevertheless,
the magazine writer contrived to SOW
tares to some purpose, for time has
made tradition Of his canard
Another theory for which more is TO
be said, fixes the first appearance OF
tartan at 1645, the date Of the battle of
Kilsyth; but Hume in his History Of
Scotland" has it that "in Argyll and
the Hebridae, before the middle of the
fifteenth century, tartan was manufac-
tured OF one or two colors for the poor,
more varied for the rich" Another
annalist, who wrote before 1890, had
noted the delight of the Highlanders
In marbled cloth, and their preference
for purple and blue. Again, the Duke
OF st. Adams has in his possession a
coat trimmed with royal Stewart tar
tan, which Charles ii wore at his we'd
ding. In 1861 the acts OF Parliament
OF Scotland had mentioned tartan as a
quite familiar commodity, which sold
at 80 shillings an ell. And upon all ac-
counts the Highland clans were wear
ing their several patterns we'll before
1900. Broadly speaking, tartans may
be divided, as the Duke of Argyll dis
tinguishes them, into red and green.
The Campbell of green and blue, is
perhaps the best known instance of the
latter while the red is to be seen ex-
emplihed in the favoritce royal Stew
art, and in the kilt OF the Cameron
Highlanders. The hunting Stewart has
its admirers; but. unfortunately, it is a
bastard tartan There is a decline
even In the best, for, In the opinion of
Lord Archibald Campbell, an expert OF
recognized authority, we cannot hope
TO recapture the colors of our ancestors.
Lord Archibald somewhere quotes the
materials OF the old dyes Blueberry
was used for making scarlet, hyacinth
for red alder for black, willow FOR
flesh color, and Logan has recorded
his approval of a mixture of bullock
blood and ime.-London Standard
