Historical Background

 
     
 

Henry Mosier, an OU track star (1908 - 1912) whose lifetime involved Oklahoma land development that created an estate and a bequest to University of Oklahoma Foundation, Inc. of almost $2 million dollars has sparked - century later - a modern day land run. Holdings in Logan, Kingfisher, Canadian and Oklahoma counties of the Henry and Ida Mosier estates is being sold by Eddie Haynes, Inc. on May 27th, 2008, in El Reno, Oklahoma for the Foundation, St. Mary's Episcopal church of Edmond, Oklahoma, and the Episcopal Diocese of Oklahoma. Though Mr. Mosier's career involved pharmacy, his eye ran to good property, and the buying and selling of good farmlands led to an accumulation of 18 excellent farms in central Oklahoma that are soon to be sold at auction in The Oklahoma Land Rush of 2008.

The properties are both productive and attractive - most with some trees, ponds or running water, or both - and rich Oklahoma soil. All are well-located and close to Oklahoma state highways or interstates. Since the year 2000, Mosier's legacy has funded $900,000 for OU scholarships in track and pharmacy and in the last year alone - over a quarter of a million dollars. On Tuesday, May 27th as the land is offered on the auction block, those buyers who are quickest with their hands, rather than feet, will be the new property owners. The public auction will take place at Redlands Community College in El Reno, Ok at 4:00p.m.
