OLD CHERRY TREE DO
;., R WN -
Messrs. McTaggart' Bros, have had
the tall cherrY tree which. grew inthe
lawn beside their bank building est
down this week mid converted into
wood. (This tree will be greatly mis-
sed Drythe boys, when cherry season
comes again, but probably nobody has
guy idea what these cherries were, like
as they were never allowed to remain
on the tree long enough to ri,iien. As
soon as they showed the least sign of
turning the attack began and never
ended until the last cherry was gone.
The tree was else sadly mutilated
each year and broken limbs strewed
the ground 'beneath from the begin-
ning of the cherry season to its close.
But it was a handsome tree' and we
shall miss it. "'
