Yeah, but he never owned the land. Maybe they should have put some forethought into the venture.
Nobody ever said he owned the land. He did own the permit/allotment to graze cattle on 600,00 acres of it though, and does own the water rights to it, and does own the homestead in conjunction with the above.
No problems for 140 years. I wonder how much more "forethought" a person would need?
