| Drynoch, the residence
of Captain
Martin
Macleod, west of
Yonge Street and

in Scotland, and made it the headquarters of his vast 600-acre (about
240-hectare) Canadian farming operation. One of his sons, Colonel
James
Macleod, achieved fame with the North-West Mounted Police and came to be
regarded as a founding father of southern Alberta. |
