This very large and magniticent tree seems to have its eastern limit 

 in the valley of the Don at Toronto, from thence it becomes more 

 plentiful and increases in size, and at Hamilton and all through the 

 western peninsula of Ontario, in low damp woods it becomes a conspi- 

 cuous forest tree. It seems to prefer river bottoms but in the low 

 country between St. Thomas and Amherstburgh, it is particularly 

 common.
