First Paragraph
An almost forgotten trace of the MacDonald family is still visible in Asheville, North Carolina, U.S.A. This is a weatherworn stone plinth, part of a memorial to Louise, the wife of George MacDonald's son Ronald, in Riverside Cemtery. Ronald had become headmaster of a local episcopal school in Asheville; Louise was taken ill soon after they arrived in America and died not long after. Lilia MacDonald came over in 1890 to act as her brother's housekeeper.
The subject has been investigated by Dale Slusser who lives in Asheville and hopes to have a plaque put on the plinth which still stands. She contributes an article on the subject to the next issue of North Wind.
