Honour Dalton (Dot) P. Marpole who owned the ranch, died in a tragic barn fire on Jan. 29, 1908. Dot was the son of Richard Marpole the general superintendent of the CPR railway. There was a post office established at Dot on Mar 1, 1009 and closed on Sept. 6, 1947 Parking is good but it is on Hwy 8 so pull well over.
