The Cheese Pionner

James McIntyre 1828 (Forres) – 1906



Lines on Rannie, the cheese pioneer, written a quarter of a century ago.

Rannie began with just two cows,
Which he in winter fed on brouse
And now he hath got mighty herds,
Numerous as flock of birds ;
May he long live, our hearts to cheer,
This great and useful Pioneer
