Caithness Heir Inherits Scottish Estates From Aunt
In America Lord Caithness, famed for his Berriedale Ranch in North Dakota, gains Auchmacoy Castle and park in Scotland through a bequest from his maternal grandaunt. The 17th Earl becomes a landowner with substantial holdings, transforming his finances from limited income to independent fortune.
