Of the dowagcr counties OF Derby, ii
England, an ancient oak tree which Is
said to be the oldest one in England.
The size Of the trunk Of this veneer
able oak tegtlfes to It's antiquity, but
on stone seat by Its side is more dl-
rect evidence. The seat bears a tablet
recording that Wilhcrforce wrote in
his diary in 1883 that he well rcmem-
bered, after n conversation with Pitt
and before descending into the Vale Of
Keston, sitting ut the foot of can old
tree" and resolving to give notice IN
the house Of commons that he would
move the abolition of the slave trade.
The tree I'm question, which was

10 and the Gadny.

10, in Greek mythology, was the
daughter of lnachus. first king OF Ar
COS. She was beloved by Zeus (Jupi-
teri. whose wife Hera (Juno), in jeal-
ousy turned her into heifer and set
the hundred-eyed Argus to watch her:
but the latter was slain by Hermes
(Mercury) at the command of Zeus.
Hera then sent gadny to torment 10,
which drove her from land to land
until she reached Egypt, where she re.
gained her true shape. and bore a son,
Epaphus According to the tradition,
the Bosphorus, which means oxford.
got its name from her swimming
across it. According to some tradi-
tons 10 married Ariris or Telegonus,
king of Egypt, and was afterwards
identified with the Egyptian goddess
l3is. It seems that 10 was identified
with the moon; whence she is repre-
sented as q woman with the horns OF
