Hope Held For Oldest U S Pear Tree
Danvers Massachusetts AP reports efforts start today to save what is believed to be America s oldest fruit tree planted in 1631 by William Endicott governor of the Massachusetts Bay colony. Selectman T Curtis King from Essex Agricultural Institute says grafting the remaining portions is planned though success depends on tree health. Town officials may obtain a slip from a pear tree abroad as copies have been sent worldwide to preserve the lineage after vandals stripped branches and cut the trunk about five feet from the ground.
