Texas Pacific Land Trust was created in 1888 due to the bankruptcy
of theTexas & Pacific Railway Company. The railroad had sold bonds
and pledged the land it earned under the Land Grant system to get
money to build the railroad, and therefore the bondholders had a
security interest in the land. The bankruptcy trustee gave the land to
the bondholders, who converted the bonds to stock and placed the
shares on the NewYork Stock Exchange. There was a reorganization
of the NewYork Stock Exchange in 1888 andTexas Pacific LandTrust
was placed as the number three company that year. Scarce railroad
related stock. ���������������������������������������������������������������������Est.
