Collection Descriptive Notes:
Eric Hamp and David Clement, using English, evoke Gaelic tokens from Lachie McDonald, the last fluent speaker of the dialect spoken on the island of St. Kilda.
Collection Technical Notes:
It is not certain that these are the original field recordings donated to the LLA by Hamp on 17 March 1994; e.g.
on two of the recordings one hears remnants of previous recordings. Margot Hamp apparently operated the tape recorder. Note: The WAVE files are now converted to MP3s.
