THE CHARTER OAK.
Bells TolIed and Funeral Dirges Played
When II Fell.

When II Fell.
The charter oak of Hartford was
white oak. The story goes that when
James, duke Of York, ascended the
throne of England and sent Andres to
take away all colonial charters Con-
nectlcut alone refused TO surrender
hers. Andres was furious over this
defiance, and Oct. 81, 1887. he returned
to the assembly hall Of Hartford with
a body of soldiers and demanded in
stant surrender of the charter, which
lay In a box on the table. A hot dis
cusslon followed. Finally Andres
stretched out his hand to seize the
disputed paper Then the candles
were suddenly extinguished, and the
people who had gathered on the street
outside rushed In disorderly crowd
into the hall. There was period of
wild confusion in the dark, and when
the candles were finally relighted no
charter was to be found 1t had been
removed by Captain Wadsworth and
concealed in the oak. which ever after
ward bore its name.
The oak was even then old. when
the first settlers were clearing their
land the Indians begged that 1t might
be spared. 1T has been the guide of
our ancestors for centuries they said.
as to the time of planting our corn.
When the leaves are the size of a
mouse's ears, then is the time to put
seed into the ground The Indians re-
quest was granted, and the tree, after
ward becoming the custodian of the
lost charter, became famous for all
time. 1t fell in a windstorm Aug. q,
1856, and so deeply was 1t venerated
that at sunset on the day Of its fall
the bells of the city were tolled and
band of music played funeral dirges
over Its ruins.
AT the time of its fall Its circumfer-
ence one foot from the ground was
twenty-five feet, and 1t was estimated
to be over 600 years old.-Kansas City
