About three or foui miles west of

and dead. It is Bin rounded on all
Bides by other trees that puts forth
their leaves every spring and it is

was lynched on this tiee and the
limb is still pointed out to which
tho rope was attached and tho un-
fortunate wretch was suspended.
Stiaightway nftei the hinging the
