By aldermanic order, the mas- |sive tree which stood at the north- west’ corner of the green for 227 years and which stopped a rain of British bullets In 1779 and saved the lives of colonists in the Town- send homestead, crashed into Eim street-as the city fathers ordered the famous drive widened. It is maintained by some N Haven historians that the tree was set in the ground in .the famous planting of 1658 which would make it 269 years old. It was first mentioned, however, in the diary of Thomas Townsend in 1700 as “an uncommonly fine tree, too large to girth or span.” Possessions of Czar Will Go at Auction Moscow, May 3.
