A relic of years Of the past is gone
from Sharpsburg. On a recent visit
to the Antietam National Cemetery
we had our attention called to the
'denuded appearance" of the Citi-

that practically all OF the shade trees
in the cemetery had been cut down.
We made inquiry about it and were
informed that the trees, which were
old, had become hollow through the
trunk and that the Citizens Gene
terry Committee had considered them
menace to the gravestones which
might be damaged if the trees should
fall on them; also the roots of the
trees interfered with the digging OF
graves, it was stated.
