oaks which botanists have designated as the thick- 

 leaved oaks, which are almost evergreen in the South, 

 but are, of course, deciduous at the North. This group 

 includes the water oak, the barren oak, the shingle oak, 

 the upland willow oak (Quercus cinerea) and the 

 willow oak (Quercus phellos). Of this group the only 

 representatives we have in Central Park are the shingle 

 oak and the willow oak, both of which are in this 

 vicinity as has been stated. 



At this lamp by the Drive, we cross to go to the Ter- 

 race where we will find many very beautiful things, 

 and which we will take up, in detail, in the next ramble.
