And then its story was not of the Christian crusndes upon Jerusalem, when the tree was a mere stripling a decade old. Nor was it of the de- feat cf the Spanish Armttttdtt, Nor the landing of the Pilgrims. Nor Cornwallis' surrender to Washington. Nor Napoleon's Waterloo. Nor the first sawmill, nor the flrst Atlnntic cable. Chum-l Within Its great story of the past, told 1mm vividly than mere words could express. lay in the growth rings of the tree. In this living vault were charcoal records proving that the fie survived 12 different forest fires dur- ine the first 400 years of its life. After being felled for the sawmill at Veronia, Ore,, the tree, 10 feet in diameter at the base and Stretch- ing 230 feet in its length. was care- fully studied by an expert.
