Of course, in local terms, the phrase means "graveyard", and many of Findley's dead pets lie buried there, along with the ashes of his brother and parents.
Both in the early stages of their writing careers, they reasoned that nothing could be more conducive to a writerly muse than a gently tumbling-down farmhouse nestled among the rolling hills of the southern Ontario countryside.
