Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei waahanga - I manaaki te whanau Erskine i etahi manuhiri rongonui, tae atu ki a William Bollaert FRGS (1840), Ferdinand von Roemer (1845<unk>1847), me Frederick Law Olmstead (1857). Whai muri i te hoko a te whanau Erskine i te ranch i nga tau 1870, i tukuna tetahi waahanga o te whenua ki a Edith Kermit Carow, te wahine tuarua o Theodore Roosevelt. I te Pakanga Paniora-Amerika, i eke a Roosevelt ki te hoiho El Capote, "Seguin", i te Pakanga o San Juan Hill
(1898) He aha te take? He maha atu nga hoiho mai i El Capote i whakamahia e te 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry ("Roosevelt's Rough Riders") ano hoki.
