Rare colleetion Of RiIls.

Many old and rare trees can be seen
IN the Wilmington and Brandywine
cemetery and the collection is consid-
cred the most choice to be found in
the state. Included among the more
rare specimens are a cedar OF Lebanon,
a yellow leaf ash, and a tree which
is supposed to be a native of China.
It's botanical name is Cunningham

that, Samuel c. Penrose, the cemetery
superintendent was unable to find a
similar specimen in the botanical gar
den at Washington.
