[00:00.00]Twenty years slipped by 


[00:02.50]and John Love died 


[00:04.15]at the early age of 47. 


[00:06.23]Several years later, son James 


[00:09.18]and his family, as well 


[00:11.59]as widow Lily, his Mother, 


[00:13.56]made the decision to leave Pennsylvania 


[00:16.40]and settle in Canada. 


[00:18.48]They made the arduous 1 trek 2


[00:20.56]over Indian trails, crossing 


[00:23.51]the Niagara River to settle 


[00:25.37]in what we now call Ontario.


[00:28.33]I am a Canadian. 


[00:31.06]Having traced my roots 


[00:33.14]and followed in the footsteps 


[00:35.22]of these early settlers, 


[00:36.97]I feel a sense of gratitude 


[00:38.72]to my ancestors who 


[00:40.36]faced extreme difficulties 


[00:42.00]and severe hardship to 


[00:44.19]settle in a new land. 


[00:46.60]Liberty, then and in today’s world, 


[00:50.21]is a priceless inheritance.


[00:52.51]Once more, I glanced 


[00:55.57]at the silver pin before 


[00:57.65]returning it to the velvet 3 box. 


[01:00.05]Once again, I questioned, 


[01:02.35]“What did I inherit 


[01:04.43]from my Love ancestors?” 


[01:06.95]I realize the answer has been 


[01:09.36]revealed while writing this story. 


[01:11.87]I have determination, strength, loyalty 


[01:16.46]and a love of adventure.


[01:18.65] This is my inheritance.
