prohibited tartans

[MacMillan of Rathdown]

I had a client order a kilt in this tartan. It would require a custom weave, of course, so I called the mill to order the cloth for the kilt. I was informed by the mill that they could only weave it with permission of "Madam McKerrell of Hillhouse" and they gave me her contact information. I passed that information on to my client.

Charles McKerrell of Hillhouse is an absolute gentleman, but he is painfully shy. Madam McKerrell, who is a charming lady, usually deals with all telephone conversations, hence she is usually the first point of contact for Clan McKerrell matters, including permission to wear the McKerrell tartan.

Exactly.

Good to know, thanks. That explains the reason for my previous confusion. :-)
