Catalpa Tree

History
14
This catalpa tree is believed to have been planted in 1912 when the railroad station was built. Local residents remember when its limbs were so long they nearly touched the ground. Before World War II, a cannon stood next to the tree, but it was donated to a scrap drive like many other things in town.
