the opening in the middle of an old mill
stone which lay upon the ground. and. being
thus protected, grew into thriving saplinG
that shot up through the opening. In few
years 1t had increased so that it filled the
space and was firmly wedged to the sides of
the heavy stone. Still it grew. and in a
ic" years more, little by little, it lifted the
entire weight clear from the earth, so chat \
man coaid sit beneath it. All was done
