Owner’s Remarks — The “Box” for which the place was named, “Box- 
ly”, was planted in 1803 by John DuBarry. On account of its 
dense growth, it was necessary in 1901, when the place was 
purchased by Air. Taylor, to re-design the garden, and at that 
time 1600 ft of the Box was successfully transplanted in sec- 
tions, each section averaging 39ft. in length, 6ft. in height, and 
9ft. in breadth. This Box was reset in the original design and 
has thrived well, while the gardener has been equally success- 
ful in raising vigorous plants from the cuttings of the old 
stock.
