John A. Booth's tribute 

 to Davey Tree Surgery 



.4 portion of the grounds on the estate of J. J. Van Alen, Ochre Point, Newport, 

 R. I. Many of these priceless trees have been treated by Davey Tree Surgeons 



Gentlemen: I cannot speak too highly of the effici- 

 ency shown by your experts working on the estate 

 of Mr. J. J. Van Alen. It astonished me to see 

 the way they cabled some of the fine specimen 

 maples and elms. Each man worked like a clock. 

 Each man knew exactly what was expected of him. 



The trees had been previously chained with heavy 

 chains, but when your men finished with a tree these 

 chains hung so loose as to be entirely useless. The 

 cables your men put in are a great improvement, 

 and can hardly be seen from the grounds. 



Tn closing, I would say that I was highly pleased 

 with the courteousness and gentlemanly bearing of 

 every one of the experts. It is a great relief to super- 

 intendents and gardeners to have such men around 



who can be trusted to be live wires at all times. 

 Wishing you a prosperous year, Very truly yours, 



JOHN A. BOOTH.
