    Sometimes you would hear people say that people that grabs land would never have a day's luck but plenty people grabbed land and are more lucky today than people that never grabbed it. Sometimes after the landlord evicting people about a hundred or two hundred people would come with their horses and cars and draw stones and others would be building and in the evening there would be a fine house built for you and roofed and thatched and scrawed and all in one day and it is called a "League house" but it wouldn't be very big. The day you would be put out of your house a crowd of soldiers would come with the battering ram and knock down your house.
