This is NOT the source of my statement; but, is of a similar angle: http://www.vowsfromtheheartofscotlan...lerytartan.htm There's also this picture of a kilted minister there:
There's also a similar reference here, low down on the page... This (profusion of variations on the interpretation of the origin of the sett) seems to indicate to me that these are different ways of looking at the convention of giving the Clergy a tartan of their own: so that they might be readily identified as such and given due courtesy.
