dual known, which grows on the plantation of the 

 Messrs. Bartrams near Philadelphia. It probably is 

 only a hybrid plant on that account, and cannot with

 insert it here on that account only.

 The fFaler Oak is about forty feet high when full 

 grown ; its wood is but little valued. Its leaves vary,

 and the same tree is almost as variable in its different 

 branches.
