this particular Long Tom which had
done service on a French vessel and
afterward on an English vessel, passed
into the possession of this country. It
was mounted on board an American
man-of-war and in one of the engage
ments which our ships had with
French ships at the close Of the eight
eenth century the Long Tom was used
against ship Of the country which
once owned 1t. In this fight French
shot struck the gun and denied it,
but did not put it entirely out of CON-
mission.
The United States government con-
demned the Long Tom although it was
still serviceable and sold 1t to the
Island Of Haiti, which then was en-
gagged in war on its own account
against the French nation. It was
used by the Haytians and so at least
twice in its existence the gun was
turned against its first owners

In some way today unknown, this

It was used on board an American

was used in service against it's second

It is impossible to tell how many
willow trees there are in the United
States which are said to be grown
from slips Of the tree planted at the
head of the first grave Of Napoleon
on the Island Of st. Helena. One runs
across them in all parts Of the country
and some Of them may be rea slips Of
the famous trees, but the general be-
lief is that most Of them are counter
feits."
There is a willow tree in the Wash
Ington navy yard, however, which it Is
known Is an offspring of the Napoleon
willow. Commodore cambridge. who
commanded the old Constitution and
who was famous naval officer IN his
day, obtained slip Of the tree.
brought 1t to America and planted it
with his own hands in the navy yard.
