Scotch Sabbath Morality,

Even in Scotland up to the middle
of the eighteenth century Sabbath
morality was geographical. Sabbath,
according to a contemporary writer,
never "got aboon the pass O. Killie-
crankie." For generations after the
reformation the highlander on Sunday
drove his cattle to market, brought
home his fuel, baked his bread, fished,
played shinty and put the stone"
Sunday christenings and penny we'd
dings were common, and the presby-
terry books merely sent warnings
against piping, adding and dancing at
them.
But in the lowlands the church took
a sterner view. The assembly forbade
shippers and sailors to begin any voy-
age on the Lords day or to "loose any
ships, banks or boats" Aberdonians
were fined II they failed to attend
