The Tribute of Andrew Rodgers to 

 Davey Tree Surgery 



130 Court Street, Plymouth, Mass. 

 The Davey Tree Expert Co., 



Kent, Ohio. 

 Dear Sirs : 



Your experts having oi)erated upon the trees at this estate 

 for three successive years, I have had every opportunity of 

 vifatching very closely their most interesting and valuable work. 



Your men are real live wires and professionals in the true 

 sense of the word. 



Admitting that it is up to every gardener to secure the very 

 best seed and nursery stock in order to insure giving satisfaction 

 in his crops, flowers and shrubs, is it not logical then that the 

 wonderful specitncn trees should have the attention of the highest 

 authorities? E.xperts trained only for this particular business 

 should always be the first consideration. The very best is not too 

 good, but a doubtful proposition is dangerous to recommend 

 to any estate owner. 



Your treatment on the trees here will stand any investigation. 

 With all good wishes 



Sincerely yours, 



(Signed) Andrew Rodgers 

 Gardener to Mrs. Ethel D. Mellor. 



The saving of priceless trees is a matter of first importance on 

 every estate. Davey Tree Surgery is a fulfillment of the maxi- 

 mum expectations of those who love and value trees. A careful 

 examination of your trees will be made by appointment.
