Ghosts Wearing Kilts?

[Bugbear]

Thinking of a recent thread on a ghost hunter show, and a subsequent PM discussion...

Does anyone know of or have stories, accounts, and so on of ghosts wearing kilts?

[Bugbear]

Hmmm, guess ghosts don't wear kilts...

I may be wrong but I seem to remember witness reports of kilted pipers and soldiers at Ft. Ticonderoga. Only problem with this is that I believe they were, by that time, wearing issue trews.

I can't say I've read of the Black Watch wearing trews at the siege of Fort Carillon in the French & Indian War...

I was thinking it was the 84th Emigrant Regiment, maybe I have my regiments mixed up though

From over in my Scottish Ghost Stories thread:

It's a story that goes from scotland to america and I first read it in an account of the battle ticonderoga. here is an account from the web. http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.c...avidperry/ty2/

cajunscot brought up the "Duntrune Castle and the phantom MacDonald piper," but I don't see anything in the thread about the ghost piper wearing a kilt.

As far as I know, which really isn't far at all, the Duntrune piper is only heard and not seen, at least i have never heard of him being seen.

You also have your wars mixed up; the 84th was raised for service in the Revolution, not the F & I.
