Excerpt from Sketch of Mound Cemetery, Marietta, Ohio The sides of the ramparts and mounds were covered by grand old trees, the growth of centuries. One day, in the presence of Governor St. Clair, some trees were felled, and the number of concentric circles counted in order to ascertain their age. One of the largest, a poplar tree, contained 452 circles, and therefore was more than 452 years old. The Rev. Manasseh Cutler, from whose jour nal the above facts were taken, wrote, Ad mitting the age of the present growth to be 450 years and that it had been preceded by one of equal size and age, which as probably as otherwise was not the first, the works have been deserted more than 900 years. If they were occupied 100 years, they were erected more than 1000 years ago. The worthy pioneers gave evidence of their wisdom and culture by laying out broad streets and ample lots, and above all by re serving some of the most perfect of the ancient earthworks for public grounds.
