John Chisholm is listed in the Glasgow classified directory as a bagpipe maker in 1901.  The listing changed to Chisholm and Hunter in 1912.  Hunter appeared earlier as dealing in antiques and musical instruments and many other items.  It appears that the bagpipe business continued until about 1949.  According to one source who joined the Royal Scots as a band boy at age 15, "old time pipers played Chisholm pipes in the regiment band as they were the best."
