At the turn of the century, there were two Scottish families that settled in White Plains, and Rye, New York. The two families were easily American, moving back and forth between America and what they simply called: the other side. In White Plains, Grandfather and Grandmother managed a home with their daughter and one boy (Malcolm) and the widow of their oldest son and her two boys (Ken and Norm). In nearby Rye, their second son had three boys (with...

Mr. MacIntyre and his Rolls were two magnificent...

In the words of that great Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson, Glad did I live and gladly die, and I lay me down with a will.

I have such fond memories of Malcolmof his...
