Instead, the five-story project was built surrounding her 108-year-old farmhouse, where she died at age 86 in 2008.〔 In the process, she became something of a folk hero.〔 After she died, Macefield willed her house to the new building's construction superintendent, Barry Martin, in gratitude for his friendship and caretaker role.〔 Martin told the ''Seattle Post-Intelligencer'', "Two or three times she was basically going to sell and move, and then I know the last time she ended up falling and breaking some ribs, and that kind of took the gas out of her, and then it was just too much work." == Early life == Macefield was born in Oregon in 1921 and learned French, German, and other languages. She joined the military and was sent to England, where she was later taken out of the service after officials discovered she was not 18 years old.〔(Edith Macefield, 1921-2008: Ballard woman held her ground as change closed in around her ), Mulady, Kathy, seattlepi.com〕 Macefield stayed in England where she took care of war orphans, and later moved back home, where she took care of her mother and worked at Washington Dental Service. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edith Macefield」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
