One of the best known car-buildine
concerns has just completed twoYdin-
ers that are. .panelled withStBe wood of
one of the famous EnglishS: oaks of
Rockingham. a few yeears ago the
Watson family, owners of Rocking
ham Park, were !, compelled to- sell
some e2of the. old, trees TO raise money.
Twenty-seyen Of tie largest Of tie an
cient oaks were cut and sold to the
American car builders. The tree which
furnished wood for the diners men
toned was nearly eight. feet in .dia-
meter, and within it's bulk sawyers
found relies of three periods of Eng
lisla history. The first find was a fiat
tened musket ball UNDER six: inches
of new wood. 1t had evidently be-
longed to a type Of gun used in the
eighteenth century. Deeper in the
trunk the workmen came ON a match
lock slug, which the antiquarians said
was Of the Cromwellian period. Most
interesting of all was an ancient, gate
hook of wrought iron. = imbedded
almost at the trees heart, which must
have been driven home when the eight
foot trunk lad been little bigger than
post timber. Experts said the growth
OF wood over the iron had taken at
least eight centuries in it's making.
