f a plot on which the famous one-leg
406 Dutch go vi't nor of the colony,
Peter Stuyvosnut, built a stockado as

"After tho 1 evolutionary war. when

myself to think no, at any rate.
"A few miles from this historic old
oak, an old rcHldcnt Informed me, is
another tree which besides being nn
ancient landmark is something of a
cuiloHlly. It Is a chestnut tree, with a
trunk HI feet In circumference, from
which about six feet from the ground
a white elm of large size has grown.
The chestnut trunk completely on
closes that of the elm, and thu expla
nation of the cm lous association Is
that at home time a branch of tbo
chestnut was broken off, leaving a
cavity in which In time mould nnd
vegetable matter tolled cd and mado
bultnblo depth or mill for Ihe seed of
the elm. which lodged therein to
germinate and grow and fo'Tomo a
tree, n veritable part of Its unprotest
lng host, the luaninioib chestnut
trunk."
