An Eccentric Elm Tree.
Thebe is a curious series of trees on the farm of Mrs. P. Mariner, of Perm Van. The original tree, an elm, was blown down over thirty years ago. The trunk, which remains, is fifty-eight feet long, and from this trunk a row of twenty-six young trees have sprung, many of which are fully fifty feet high. The young trees seem like branches from the old trunk, but they are well grown perfeot trees. — Rochester Chronicle.
