Verifying corner stones

Our new land is marked off by stones in the corners.  There was a question about whether one of the stones had been moved by a neighbor, so before we paid for the land, we went with the owner Sebastián to check it out.  He and his brother Felipe ran a string between two corner stones to verify that the stone in the middle, marking our corner, was in the right place.  To our relief, it was fine!
