ABOUT THE TOWER TREE

Early in the 1870s, citizens noticed what seemed to be a small sprig on the northwest corner of the Courthouse tower, Soon it became evident that the small sprig was growing. Residents regarded the growth as a rare freak of nature. That explanation was quickly refuted by the appearance of more sprouts on the tower. Finally, five were counted, making a grove growing at an altitude 110 feet above the courthouse lawn level. County officials became fearful the trees might cause permanent damage to the tower roof. In 1888, a steeplejack was employed to help workers ascend the building and remove some of the shrubs. Of the two remaining, one attained a height of about 15 feet diameter of almost five inches at the base. At the same time, another tree made an appearance on the southeast corner of the tower, and in a few years grew to a considerable height. During its maturation, another tree sprung up on the southwest corner. These two new trees endured, as did the county’s legacy as the home of the Courthouse tree.
