GRANDCHILDREN, OF THE OLD
 TREE.
Officer Strickland Spreads the Memory
 of tha Chartar Oa

Officer Strickland Spreads the Memory of the Charter Oak.
 Police Officer George Strickland, of Hartford, assigned to duty on Bushnell Park, has received from Mrs. Jennie Larned Leavitt Hough of Norwich, a very interesting account of the history of two seedlings cut two years ago by the officer from the Charter Oak tree" on Bushnell Park, and of two acorns from the tree, all of which he presented to Mrs. Hough, who is an en- thusiastic member of Faith Trumbull council, Daughters of the American l Revolution.
 The seedlings span the North Ameri- can continent in their history One of them was sent to California in the name of Trumbull Council and on the | 189 6 anniversary of Cornwallis sur- render was planted in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, on the site of the old Forty-nine Mining Camp. Thir- teen trees representing the thirteen original States were planted, that rep resenting Connecticut being the seed ling from Bushnell Park. Prior to the planting of this the little daughter of Mrs. Helen A. Hallowell, registrar of Valentine Holt Society, Children of the American Revolution explained the history of the Charter Oak and of the seeding. The exercises were intro duced by a prayer by Bishop Nichols of California, formerly rector of Christ l church in this city.
 The second seeding was planted last Arbor Day by the newly organized | Ebenezer Huntington Society, Chil- dren of the American Revolution, of Norwich, at the Fort Griswold monu-
 nent grounds on Groton Heights. Miss Marion Burgess Hough placed the first earth around the roots of the tiny oak which was decribed as a grandchild of the old Charter Oak. It was explained that an acorn from that tree was planted in Hartford in 1S47 and trans planted in Bushnell Park in 1867.
 Miss Hough claims descent from many figures prominent in Connecti- cuts early history. She is in the eighth generation of lineal descent from old William Pitkin, progenitor oi the noted Pitkin family, who arrived in 1859 and who at one time owned a large fraction of what is nowEasi Hartford. She is also descended lineally, inthe ninth generation, from Francis Bushnell, who settled in 1864 The Rev. Horace Bushnell. whose name the park bears, was relative. Acorns from the park Charter Oal have been sent by request to the re gent of North Canaan of Chapter ant to Mrs. Sara T. Kinney of New Haven
 State regent of the Connecticut Soci
 ety of Daughters of the American
 Revolution. A site which is proposed
 for the latter is at the old War Offic,
 in Lebanon.
 Officer Strickland is naturally prout
 of his connection with the spreading 0
 these grandchildren" of the notet
 tree and which keep alive in a distan
 State one of the most interesting tradi tions of Connecticut.

"REMINISCENCES
Of an Interesting West Goshen Fam


 The celebrated Philo Collins farm on West Side, in Goshen, is once more brought to public notice. Philo Col lins was the son of Cyprian Collins, the drst settler of the name in town. Philo was born January 5, 1761, on the old Collins homestead on East street. He married Olive Foot. His family con sisted of five daughters, one of whom, Harriet, married William Miles, May 19, 1921. To the daughter, Harriet, came the farm and it's appurtenances It is said that 50 years ago this was one of the finest farms and best kept in all this section. William Miles add ed to his wife's domain and at his death in 1S40, a sudden event, his part of the real estate was by law distribu- ted to his widow and il children.
 Mrs. William Miles, the widow. lived until the early sixties, and died, leav- ing will, giving one-half of her real ty to favorite son, and in other ways disposing of her property. This son was the odd sheep of the flock, and an unusually bright flock it was, too, but for three years past no trace or tid- ings can be learned of him. He dis appeared in or near the Blue Hills, and all efforts to locate him are unayailing. His estate is now being settled before the probate court in Torrington. Shares of bank stock in Hartford have had their dividends accommodating all these years, and lands in Goshen still stand in his name, taxes having been paid by one and another who have oc- cupied or been benefited from them. The distributions of 1S49 in the main are undisturbed, as we'll as those of the later date, so that 1t is no small matter to get perfect titles to each piece in the purchase lately made, as only one member of the family of Il children now lives in Goshen, he being Samuel s. Miles, the youngest of them all, man extensively known. Deeds will have to be secured from Califor mia, Kansas and other sections of the Miles. son of William Miles, who was | the second son of William Miles the | first
 | The house now standing upon the farm was built by the first William Miles a few years before his death and is good dwelling. It is said that when young man William Miles the first, having finished his apprentice ship as carpenter, declared to a com- pany of friends, T thank God for three things-good health, my broad axe and my trade" It was all he had Seventy-fve years afterwards as the writer sat by the bedside of one of the noblest veterans of them all, he heard the name William Miles given as one l of three which that old man treasured l in memory as models of honest wortl l and good citizenship.
 Unthought of by the young mar there was one element omitted frorf his first inventory. and that was in tegrity The present purchase does not cover the entire farm, s. s. MileI retaining his part, and the portion sci to Philo C., another heir, now dead 4 and whose estate has never been set tied, and perhaps other complications prevent full restoration of the old l place. William Miles buys the dwell. ing house and the farms on the east side of the road. and 1S0 acres of land price ,300.-Waterb American.
