EDGECoMBE's HUGE PINE.
Rocky Mount Twin County Echo.
An item in the Durham Herald
gives the number of feet of lumb Der
contained in five poplar trees cut In
that section which may surpass our
poplars in SIZE, but we doubt 1t a
larger pine tree can be found in the
State than one now growing on the
land of DR.. w. P. Mercer, in Edge
combe county. Mr.. Jesse l.. Brake
informs us that Is years ago this
tree measured ~ feet in circumference
and measured 60 or 70 feet from
the ground to the first limb and was
then said to be the largest in the
State. 1t can be seen at a long dis
tarce, towering far above those sur
rounding it, and is favorite Sunday
resort. Large lumber dealers have
frequently tried to buy this tree FOR
shafting but the owner refused to
sell.
