When running back out on to the battle field, he had gone to retrieve his bagpipes. A British army chaplain had found the pipes in 1917 and were unidentified for 7 decades, as they were nearly broken and torn apart with mud and blood stains. They were later identified by a parent that the bagpipes were from the Canadian Scots and soon found out they were played by piper Richardson.
