In Saki's "The Interlopers," the lawsuit over the possession of the narrow strip of very steep forest was won by the von Gradwitz family.
Since this suit, the "dispossessed party," the Znaeyms, have refused to comply with the ruling against them; therefore, numerous quarrels have arisen over their acts of poaching. Because of these disputes, a contentious relationship is developed between Ulrich, now the head of the family, and his contemporary, Georg Znaeym:
As boys they had thirsted for one another's blood, as men each prayed that misfortune might fall on the other.
Harboring this hatred for Georg Znaeym, Ulrich von Gradwitz patrols the disputed land continually in the hope of finding his enemy trespassing. As turbulent weather approaches one night, von Gradwitz and his men set out to find Znaeym and his hunters because they know that on this night the roebuck will be running from the approaching storm and, thus, be easy prey for any hunters.
