log. It is from a tree which was
230 feet high and 800 years old
when cut in 1936. The tree was
79 years old when the Magna
Charta was signed and 350 years
old when 1 Columbus discovered
America. ' |
Two Texans are on the board
of directors of the association.
They are E. L. Kurth of Lufkin,
and O. D. (Dooley) Dawson. Hous
