Amongst the many interesting
incidents of her, active life, the
writer was intrigued; with the fol-
lowing tale recounted several years
ago by Miss Rankin:
As a small child, Catherine P,
Rankin's widowed mother and her
family lived, for a few years in a
house' on -her brother Robert Ball's
farm at Niagara-on-the-Lake.
It was Robert Ball who promo-
ted peach culture in the Niagara
peninsula, 'Farmers were skeptical
When he advocated it. And so to
prove his point, he budded seed-
lings 'with good varieties and set
out the first commercial peach or-
chard. And it was Miss Rankin,
then known at "Katie" whose nim-
ble little fingers tied the raffia
around those buds 'for her 'uncle
Robert,
From England came a • young
man named Martin Burrell, Being
interested in Agriculture, he was
channelled to Robert Ball's farm
where he spent about a year in
1884-5, gaining first-hand know-
ledge of Canadian farming meth-
ods, -
"Katie," then about nine years
of age, posted his love letter's to
his fiancee in England and brought
the lady's letters from the post
office to Martin Burrell.
From him she received her first
box of chocolates. In the spring,
he bet her that there'd be no snow
left in a week. She het that there
would be some. At the end of the
week, the landscape was appar-
ently bare; but the alert little
Katie lifted up the boughs of the
spruce rees and showed Mr. Bur-
