upon them about hive five years ago we planted a peach pit from which grew a tree and we have for th the past two years partaken partaker par taken of fruit from it H many others nave done more than

they are permitted to put forth 1 their hands and pluck the precious fruit during the past four or five years there have been a I 1 great number number of peaches grown in this territory ory the pits
