An article sure to interest Tar
heels, especially, perhaps, those of
Moore and Robeson counties, ap
apears this week in Scotland’s
Magazine under the title “North
Carolina Scots.”
The article is written by Donald
MacDonald and his wife, Scottish
Mairie, who live in Scotland.
Well-remembered in the state as
the young man who donned a kilt
and was the power behind the re
vival of highland tradition in the
state, MacDonald writes of the
Highland Games at Grandfather
Mountain, the Laurinburg high
school band, dressed in kilts, and
the singing of old ballads, with
detailed descriptions of Flora
Macdonald College and various
historic spots.
Leaving the Charlotte News,
afternoon paper for which he had
worked as a reporter for several
years, young MacDonald made
several trips to the home, of his
forefathers and, becoming be
witched by the ancient culture
and history, threw all his ener
gies into bringing it back to
North Carolina, already deeply
tied-in with the Scottish culture.
MacDonald was instrumental,
with historians of the section, in
reestablishing the site of the
home of Flora Macdonald near
Mt. Gilead, where a gathering
was held two years ago and a his
torical marker erected.
The article is lavishly illustra
ted with photographs of various
Carolina gatherings. Mention is
made of towns, rivers, and sec
tions bearing Scottish names, in
cluding Aberdeeg in Moore Coun
ty, with the explanation that
“abar” means “mouth of” and
“deen” stands for “deathan” or
“dee” and the river of that name.
The MacDonald article closes
with the following descriptive
paragraph; “In Scotland, ‘frae
John O’Groats tae the Mull o’Gal-
lawa’ describes the length of the
land—encompassing both High
lands and Lowlands. In Scottish
North Carolina “Highlands” , and
“Lowlands” are actually the
names of towns at the two ex
treme ends of the state. Between
these two communities, and popu
lated by thousands of ■'‘Southern
accent” Americans who proudly
wear the kilt and trace their roots
to Caledonia—lies “New Scotland,
North Carolina.”
