IN BRIEF: To whom something belongs.
[The log cabin's] aged owner was sitting in front of the door, smoking a corncob pipe, and when the traveler drew close enough he asked the old man patronizingly: "Lived here all your life?" "Nope," the old mountaineer replied patiently. "Not yet."
— James Keller, American religios leader & writer.
