After Bonnie Prince Charlie's Scottish forces were defeated by the English at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, a British act was passed that forbade the Scots from wearing tartan. In fact, orders were given for British troops to shoot, on sight, any person dressed in Highland garb. A Tartan was the hand woven plaid material that was worn by the occupants of that rugged country. It not only provided warmth, its dif- ferent designs and colors represent- ed the wearer's family connections. Forbidding the display of the tartan was like cutting them off from their community, however, the stubborn Scots prevailed, secretly carrying a scrap of the cloth hidden in their clothing when they went to Kirk (church). The minister slipped a blessing (a Kirkin') into the service for those tartans and the families they represented. After fifty years, the Act was repealed, and the Church of Scot- land celebrated with a Service of Family Covenant, where the tartan of each family was offered as a covenant expression for the Lord's blessing. vices have spread across the United States. The first Kirkin' o' the Tartan was held in the New York Presby- terian Church in 1941. Dr. Peter Marshall was an emigrant from Kirkin' 'o' the Tartan worship ser- County, at the Red Bluff Presbyter- ian Church located at 838 Jefferson Sreet in Red Bluff. The tradition of the Kirkin'O' the Tartan has evolved into a colorful, festive occasion for cele- brating Scottish heritage, asking God's blessing and protection for those represented by the tar- tans. Celtic and Scottish peoples acknowledge the historical contributions of native Scots and Scottish-her- itage Americans through the cele- bration of their faith. A creative blend of music, hymns and prayers from the Scottish faith tradition are relived in this worship service. The ceremony is celebrated today not only in Presbyterian churches but also in other Protes- tant and Roman Catholic services where the ceremony is a great social occasion for people of Scot- tish origin to congregate and wor- ship God. Celtic customs are brought to the ceremonies includ- ing the tartan, the bagpipe, the Kirk, the songs, dances and fiddles as were heard in Nova Scotia, Canada one summer during their third annual International Gather- ing of the Clans. The Kirkin 'o' the Tartan occurs on Reformation Sunday, the Sunday closest to October 31st, in acknowl- edgment of Martin Luther's nailing of his Ninety-five theses on the cas- tle church door in Wittenberg, Ger- many.
