BIG UNDERTAKING. 
A Tree, Seventy Feet High, and 
Over Two Feet in Diameter, 
Lifted Out of the Ground in 
Hamilton and Transposed to the 
Lawn in Front of the W. H. 
Moore Summer Home in Prides 
Crossing. 
A large and almost full grown 
elm tree, seventy feet in height, 
with a 26-inch diameter at the base 
and with a ball of earth sixteen feet 
in diameter, cemeted together by its 
roots, lifted out of the earth in Ham- 
ilton and removed several miles to 
the estate of Judge W. H. Moore of 
New York, at Prides Crossing, is a 
feat which very few if any of our 
readers have ever before heard of. 
The tree now stands defiantly on 
the beautiful lawn in front of the 
magnificent summer home of Judge 
Moore, and overlooks the bay, with 
its expanding buds almost ready to 
burst open as if glad of its new 
home and surroundings. 
The tree as it stands presents a 
very imposing appearance and is 
perfect in symmetry. It is, beyond 
doubt, the largest tree that has 
ever been removed in this vicinity, 
and it was transported on a tree- 
mover especially designed and con- 
structed by Connolly Bros. of Bev- 
erly Farms. 
Some idea of the weight of the 
tree may be formed w hen it is real- 
ized that together with the ball of 
earth and the machine, it took five 
pairs of strong horses to haul it. 
The time of transportation was but 
two hours from place to place. 
Too much credit cannot be given 
Mr. Alexander Shaw, the superin- 
tendent of the Moore estate, as he 
had charge of the moving and set- 
ting of the tree. The feat was ac-
