ERNEST D. KAHL

   A representative of an old pioneer family in Merced County, Ernest D. Kahl
well represents the name left by his father, in the ranks of the agricultural
and horticultural developers. He is a native of the State, born in Monterey
County, March 27, 1860, a son of the late Adam Kahl and his good wife, whose
sketch appears in another part of this volume. Our subject was educated in the
schools of Merced County and alternated his attendance with working on the ranch
with his father, from whom he received a practical training in all branches of
farm labor so that he has been enabled to make a success of his work in later
years. He has been actively engaged in ranching in Merced County for many years
and has been so successful that he has been able to turn the ranch over to his
sons, who continue its operation in partnership with the father.

   When Ernest D. Kahl married he chose for his wife Margaret Baxter, who was
born in Nova Scotia the daughter of J. C. Baxter, a prominent rancher of this
county wherein she was reared and educated. There were two sons born of this
fortunate marriage, Leslie A. and James A., who are now conducting the ranches
controlled by their father. Mr. Kahl is a strict prohibitionist and fraternally
is a member of Yosemite Parlor No. 24, N. S. G. W., Independent Order of Odd
Fellows and the Encampment of that order. He takes an interest in promoting
every good cause for the welfare of the county and its citizens and he and his
wife have an ever-widening circle of friends.
