CONDON
Merriment abundant during Scottish celebration at Elks Lodge
East Oregonian
A dinner of haggis, neeps and tat-
ties, the sounds of pipes and drums
and copious toasting are all featured
during the annual Robert Burns Sup-
per in Condon.
Scots from around the region will
gather Saturday from 2-5 p.m. (and
beyond) at the Condon Elks Lodge,
117 S. Main St. Tickets are $17 per
person or $30 for a couple.
In its 18th year, the annual event
honors the birth date of Scotland’s
national poet as well as the rich Scot-
tish heritage of the region. The fami-
ly of Eliza ‘Bess’ Davidson and C.D.
‘Carl’ Anderson will be celebrated
and a traditional meal will be served.
In addition, some of Burns’ most fa-
mous works will be read, recited and
sung, and the pipes and drums will
make the hall resound with tradition-
al Scottish music.
A count of the clans will be tak-
en and toasts will be made to the Old
Country, to the honored family, to
absent friends, and to the pipers and
drummers.
Bess Davidson came to America
through Ellis Island alone. Her moth-
er had died and the whereabouts of
her father by the time she was 10
years old were unknown. At the age
of 17, an uncle in America, Alexan-
der Livingston Duthie, sponsored her
voyage to the new country in 1910
and she traveled across the country
headed for an establishment of Scots
