FOUNDATION
OF Old Court House in Ground
Under christmas Tree"
Believed Cause of
Tree Dying

With the report that the Christmas
Tree" planted in the court house yard
two years ago for use as commun-
ity Christmas tree and as one of four
evergreens planted in the yard, is dy-
ing, explanations of the cause of the
"death" of the tree are being adj
vanced.
The one most readily accepted in
the community is that the tree is dy-
ing because of the presence of the
stone foundation of the old court
house in the earth beneath the tree.
Support of this contention is given
in the fact that each summer, the
grass of the yard, located above the
old foundation, withers and turns
brown, especially during extremely
dry weather.
1t is expected that another ever
green will be planted in place of the
one that is at this time slowly dying
The three evergreens, planted at the
three other corners of the court house
lawn during the past winter, are in
perfect condition.
