The idea of pampering animals
grew on Mrs. Christie after the death
Of her husband Major Robert b. b.
Christie, of Liverpool. Once she
bought an old factory as home for
unwanted horses. She even bought
donkeys at seaside resorts because
she thought they were overworked.
Just before the war, Mrs. Christie
planned a world tour to open every
cage in which an animal or bird
is confined"
Then came the outbreak OF hos
tilities, and the big-hearted woman
with the funny notions had 10 aban-
don her ambitious project, which she
admitted privately might be a little
difficult to accomplish.

she gets up, and lasts until dawn,
when she goes TO bed. In between,
in the dead of night, she wanders
around the castle and the grounds
with an electric torch, talking to her
furred and feathered friends.
Mrs. Christie makes il quite clear
she won't stand for visitors. Not
long ago it was reported that she
wanted to sell the island. People in
Poole, on the mainland, wrote, ask.
ing her intentions. She ignored
series of letters so it was suggested
that a delegation call on her. Mrs.
Christie broke her silence then, ad-
vising that anybody touching her
shores could be certain they would
be treated "as we treated those other
interlopers years ago."
She was referring to the welcome
that Audrey Bait and her father re-
ceived back in 1893 when they left
nearby Bournemouth for a picnic
on Brownsea Island. They had not
even landed when Miss Olsen and
John Christie sped out in the motor

AT a subsequent trial for
assault, Miss Olsen admit
ted she was employed by
Mrs Christie as a "chucker

She and John were fined and,
~ as result of the publicity, ii
n was discovered Miss Olsen was
in the country Illegally. So she
was chucked back to Denmark.
Mrs. Christie had TO cry uncle
once. That was in 1884 when the
island was swept by flames. For
36 hours she tried to fight it herself
with the aid of six or seven men
she was employing at the time.
Finally she appealed TO the Poole
Borough Council.
An engine was sent over and the
fire was eXtinguisheds That cost
her $1,000, which she paid after a
long exchange of letters.
The cost was so disturbing TO Mrs.
Christie that she subsequently bought
an engine of her own and even
learned to use the pumps.
Brownsea Island is a storehouse
of legends. One says that Canute
still haunts the shores. Another says
that ghosts of murdered sailors tread
the woods. They are the reputed vic
tins of Sir Christopher Hatton, who
in 1876 was appointed keeper of the
island by Queen Elizabeth. He is sup
posed TO have made a fortune by
searching and levying duties on pass
ing ships" When the captains would
not pay in money or cargo, hostages
were taken and killed, according to
the tale.
