The hunt had now taken
on an air of urgency. “The

Soon a prospective tree

to be fussy. A few strokes of

Nimrod of the Forest and the
hapless little fir was felled.
There was no cry of “timber”
to rent the air, nor was there
any earth-shaking crash as the
tree top ppled to the ground.

Rather there was an uncere-

bark that refused to allow the
separation of the tree from
the stump.

It has been done. Now to
