THE GATHERING AT KILCONQUHAR. C9
to convey to the American Society our best wishes.
Mr William Lindsey, in replying, said he was there
that day in a dual position. He represented the
American Society as its President, and was a full
private of the Clan Lindsay of Scotland. He stated
that he would convey the mes.sage so kindly given,
and he felt sure that the American Lindsays would be
very interested to hear from him of the magnificent
receptions which had been accorded to them on the
occasion of this gathering. After a photographic
group had been taken in front of the house, the drive
was continued to Balcarres, the home of our noble
Chieftain. In the absence of the Earl, the party were
received by the Countess of Crawford and Lord and
Lady Balcarres, whose kindness made the visit one of
unalloyed pleasure. A visit was paid to the magnifi-
cent house and grounds. Before leaving, tea was par-
taken of, and the Countess and those of her family
and friends who assisted in making the visit a
memorable one were warmly thanked. Hearty cheers
were raised by the party on leaving.
A considerable number of Lindsays remained over
the week-end in St Andrews.
The Gathering of 1907 will long be remembered
by those who had the pleasure of being present for the
many kindnesses extended to the Clan on all hands.
