The Mesa Royalty trust includes this in its charter, as shown
in
sec.edgar-online.com/2005/08/09/0001104659-05-037834/Section2.asp
and other places:
======================
The Trust may also be terminated at the expiration of
twenty-one years after the death of the last to die of all
of the descendants living at the date of execution of this
Trust Agreement of Joseph P. Kennedy, late father of the
late President of the United States, John F. Kennedy.
======================
That should be good for well over a hundred years.
