“ Sassafras,” “ Light-yellow Wood,” “ Satin-wood.” 
The wood of this tree-climber is soft and weak, and of little 
value except for packing cases. (Hill.) It is quite yellow 
when fresh, takes a fine polish, but it becomes dirty-looking 
with age, and is rarely pretty. It is fragrant, and might perhaps 
be suitable for .cabinet-work, such as the making of cabinet 
drawers, shelves, etc. A slab in the Technological Museum, 
which has been seasoned over twenty-five years (having been 
exhibited at the London International Exhibition of 1862), has a 
weight which corresponds to 43lb. 80z. per cubic foot. Diameter, 
18 to 24in.; height, 50 to 8oft.
