igth Report of Regents, 1865, p. 77), who says there are one large 

 (18 in.) and two small trees, which the people near suppose to be 

 mahogany trees. The large and one small tree are still standing 

 (1885). Three middle-size trees near the brook at Lake Ridge Sta. ! 

 Three rather large trees apparently indigenous near the Lehigh 

 Valley R. R. round-house at Ithaca!
