Rewrite the end of the story from the point of view of
one of the children of Río en Medio.
"Every person in Río en Medio born since the
railroad came to Santa Fe owns a tree in that orchard. I
did not sell the trees because I could not. They are not
mine."
There was nothing we could do. Legally we owned
the trees, but the old man had been so generous, refusing
what amounted to a fortune for him. It took most of the
following winter to buy the trees, individually, from the
descendants of Don Anselmo in the valley of Río en
Medio.
