R. Mac Kenzie of Scatwell. Footnote 17: In Chapter XIX., page 278, the date 1838 is given by mistake instead of 1835, as the year of this competition. Also, on page 284, it is stated that John Bane Mac Kenzie and Donald Cameron were the only players who held the title of “King of Pipers.” That there were at least two others is, however, shown by this list. There is a blank between 1844 and 1859 which it has not been found possible to bridge. In 1844 we leave the competitions being held triennially at Edinburgh; in 1859 we find the Gold Medal being competed for at the Northern Meeting, Inverness, as “a new feature.” Several other competitions are reported during these fifteen years, and well- known names are given as prize-winners, but there is no mention of the Highland Society’s Gold Medal. It would be interesting to know if the competition was discontinued during these years. 1859 (First competition under auspices of Northern Meeting, Inverness)—Donald Cameron, piper to Seaforth. 1860—Alex. Mac Lennan, pipe-major, Inverness Militia. 1861—D. Mac Kenzie, 25th Borderers, Shorncliffe. 1862—Alex. Cameron, Greenock Rifle Volunteers. 1863—Ronald Mac Kenzie, 78th Highlanders. 1864—Alex.
