Louis P. Noble, Irish Warpiper (London Irish Pipeband), early 1900s to 1920s

Note the hodding (solid tweed or wool) kilt usually in a dark shade of gray, Tara brooch, and brat-like sash.





Irish Republican Army Pipe Band circa 1922 with Noble as bandmaster (Yes, that IRA)


The photos were posted on the Internet by one of Louis' pupils in New York where he
emigrated from Ireland. See his tribute site at:

Actually, these pipers are "Free Staters" -- members of the Irish Free State Army.
