The early settlers also kept their culture alive through religious ceremonies and services using Scottish music, fiddles and bagpipes. The introduction of organ music was controversial because it was not part of the Presbyterian tradition. Reverend MacMillan wrote a book about religious history in Glengarry entitled "The Kirk in Glengarry".Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
