In its peak year in 1883, the ranch encompassed in portions of six Texas counties and boasted 100,000 head of cattle. ==An undiplomatic temperament== Adair was born in Queen's County (since 1922 known as County Laois), Ireland. He attended Trinity College, Dublin, where he was trained for the British diplomatic service. He had the military rank of captain. However, he seemed to lack the patient, smooth temperament required for diplomacy. He owned considerable real estate in Ireland, including the large Glenveagh Castle. In 1860, Adair went hunting on land he had rented to tenants in violation of the rental agreements. When the tenants objected, an irate Adair threatened them. A year later, in April 1861, with the force of the law behind him, he removed forty-seven families from forty-six houses in Derryveagh in County Donegal, Ireland. More than 150 screaming children and their parents were ordered off the property. Adair cleared twelve thousand acres. Many of the evicted had no idea where they might find shelter; some relocated to Australia. The incident is recorded by the Donegal band, "Goats Don't Shave," in the song "The Evictions" on their "Rusty Razor" album.〔(Castle Owners & Derryveagh Evictions )〕 Adair also established far-flung brokerage firms with offices in Ireland; New York City, New York; and then Denver, Colorado, because of his interest in buffalo hunts and the burgeoning American West.〔JA Ranch exhibit, Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum, Canyon, Texas〕 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「John George Adair」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.
