| This sett was woven by Wilson's of Bannockburn around
1819. Wilson called it the No. 64 or 'Abercrombie' pattern,
and produced it in various colours. In yellow it becomes
the Breadalbane and in red, the MacCallum. The white
striped Graham tartan is also known as MacLaggan. It is
worn unofficially by 205 (sc) General Hospital RAMCV.
There is a sample dating from 1815, labelled 'Graham', in
the Cockburn Collection. It was first published in the
Smith's book of 1850. See also Montrose, Menteith.
