Local farmer had a good sized place, and his son had been farming with him for many years. When on his deathbed, he called his children together- two daughters, and the son/ partner. Told them that he had been trying to figure out a way to equalize things, but there just wasn't any way. He told them that there was just no way son could make a living on the farm and pay his sisters for any equity. So, he was leaving the farm, equipment and cattle to son, and all his other assets to the girls. He apologized that the girls share would be nowhere near the value of sons, but that was just the way things were.

They all remain friends. There are still some ethical people out there, but they're getting harder and harder to find.
