Gentlemen: Last year your experts treated a number of trees on the 

 estate of Mr. Morris Whitridge, of which I am in charge. 



I naturally was interested in this work, as the particular trees treated 

 had previously been filled with cement. When this crude filling was 

 removed, revealing the hidden decay, I was curious to find out if the 

 same thing would happen again in a few years after your men had 

 completed their work. 



As I watched closely each stage of the treatment given by your 

 representatives, I soon saw how your methods made it utterly impossi 

 ble for the cavity to spread or moisture to enter. 



Since then the trees have stood the most severe storms, and no signs 

 of cracking or opening have appeared. I am a staunch believer in 

 Davey Tree Surgery. Truly yours, 



George W. Barnett, superintendent. 

 The saving of priceless trees is a matter of first importtince on every 

 estate. Davey Tree Surgery is a fulfillment of the muxiinum expecta- 

 tions of those who love aiirf value trees. A careful c.vaniinatiou of 

 your trees will he made hy afipointment.
