I have some infomation that suggets that the John Anderson referred to in the 
famous song was "supposed to have been the town piper of Kelso and a very gay 
dog". Could anyone elaborate on this?  Was Anderson a historical figure, and 
what might he have done to be remembered as a "very gay dog"?  

Thanks!
