The lodge of of Glentana, or Glen Taner, was a sporting estate situated in the forest of Glen Tana, Aberdeenshire, near Aboyne in North East Scotland. A wealthy banker and philanthropist from Manschester, William Cunliffe Brooks, fell in love with it in 1869 and determined to make it his home and develop it into a earthy paradise, which he accomplished in grand style and maintained until his death in 1900. The first Lady Brooks was Jane Elizabeth Orrell, whom he married in 1842, and who died in 1865. A second wife was also named Jane, daughter of Lt. Col. Sir David Davidson, who had come with his family to live in a villa near to Glen Tana. There was a significant difference in their ages--Brooks was aged 59 and Jane was 27., and they were married in 1879.

Fenced In, by Bonnie Bruno

On November 24, 1874, Joseph F. Glidden of DeKalb, Illinois, was granted a patent for fencing material consisting of barbs wrapped around a single strand of wire and held in place by twisting that strand around another. His original double-strand design, the Winner, lived up to its name; it is the most commercially successful of the hundreds of eventual barbed wire designs. Glidden was also the winner in a welter of litigation that reached all the way to the Supreme Court after some dozen other inventors claimed legal priority. Barbed wire was not immediately successful in Texas and elsewhere, especially with smaller cattle ranchers who depended on an 'open range' to sustain their operations. Their opposition led to the barbed wire conflicts of the 1880's, but eventually the ranges were fenced off. Although open range became a thing of the past, barbed wire helped cattlemen to breed herds in protected environments, thus negating the reliance on long-horned cattle that were more suitable to the open range.
