Faith
For 260 years, the majestic white oak known as the Witness Tree stood on this sacred spot. Despite preservation efforts, the tree succumbed to old age and was solemnly removed on June 3, 1991. Its memory symbolizes the patriotism and love of freedom that characterized the early Scots-Irish Presbyterians.
