“Nobody in this world has unlimited rights or unlimited freedon,” Pete Luke said. David Fannon agreed: “All laws are discriminatory in some form.”
A. Y. Stokes asked if any of the heirs would be willing to take a cash settlement as their share of their inheritance. Lea said that none of them would.
David Fannon asked Lewis Butler, one of the heirs, if he would move from his place at Sperryville over to the homeplace tract, if the request were approved. Butler said he didn’t think so, he’d probably just “hold it” for his son or daughters. Butler said he didn’t want to “bring this up, but it’s hard for a black man to buy land.” And what land black people buy, they buy from among themselves, he said.
DAVID FANNON asked if all the heirs understood that if their request for an exception to the subdivision ordinance were granted, there can be no further subdivision of any of the tracts. That means that none of the heirs will ever be able to divide off two acres for their children. T. C. Lea said his clients understood that.
Lea noted that his clients could go to court for a partition suit.
