Selling the Family Farm
Marjorie's father, who had a quarter section of land, sold the family farm to the neighbours. Years later, when Marjorie's family went to visit the land, there was an oil well in the middle of the yard. Unfortunately, Marjorie's father did not have mineral rights to the farm.
