Muck Games
Muck games: Commander MacEwen is on the left of the jump. Charlie MacDonald is jumping, and the two on the right are guests of the MacEwens. The spectators are all out of the picture. The Muck games were started by the MacEwens for the enjoyment of the local lads. Only islanders participated.
