In the communities he built, Maxwell & his family thrived along with Indians, Mexicans, & Anglos. Purchasing almost two million acres of land over the next two decades, he welcomed everyone to his home, & his hospitality became legend. But the gold that failed to charm Maxwell to California ultimately appeared very close to home: outsiders found it on his land & an invasion of NM began. In the end, Maxwell, by then a millionaire sold everything he had built to speculators & left his beloved Cimarron country hoping to start anew two hundred miles south in Fort Sumner.  Law & order swiftly deteriorated into murders, thievery, & squabble over title to land grants. Indians were removed to faraway reservations. Railroad tracks replaced the Santa Fe Trail. An idyllic interlude in the chronicle of the American West came to a close
