Original Toronto Star caption: A Local Pipe Band collects a crowd of visitors and residents as it plays before a pub on the main street of the Skye village of Armadale. The island is as beautiful as it is depicted in song and legend; but as great an attraction as its beauty for visitors are the islanders themselves; most of them Gaelic speakers of great wit and gentle charm.
