CORRESPONDENCE.
[TO THE EDITOR.] Sir, —I felt deeply grieved when visiting Foxton to-day to find that the trees in the old Cemetery were being destroyed. When one thinks of the many early residents that have been laid to rest in this enclosure, surely the destruction, of what was known in years gone by, as God’s own acre, can be avoided. The great advantage to every town is admitted to be its growth of trees and beautification, and in some countries the law compels anyone cutting down a tree to replace it with two more, so that I sincerely hope that the authorities will take steps to have this ancient land mark protected. —Yours etc., J. A. Nash. - April 19th, 1909.
