William Kennish's poem, 'Mona's Isle', is autobiographical. As he tells us of the harvest customs and celebrations, it includes a family celebration as his parents arrange a marriage portion for Kitty or Kate Kennish who is to marry that year's champion reaper. Maughold parish records show that Catherine Kennish married Ewan Looney in November 1809. Our story in Manx is of a surprise success for a would-be gardener who has, not green fingers, but a black thumb.
