neesee, is the oldest total in the
State, and at one time during the
v 18th century was the capital of
the State of Franklin. Many people
doubtless have never known
there was such a State in America,
but every schoolboy and girl
knows about the man who was responsible
for the* founding of
Jonesboro, the intrepid pioneer,
Daniel Boone. A two hour drive
over tire hilly road northeast from
Jonesboro will bring one to a tree
still in the strength of life which
stands as the living'record of an

first white man to venture into
the heavy forests formerly covering
the western slopes of the Appalachians.
Of interest to every
boy in the land is the inscription
on this tree to the effect that
"D. BooticillEl) A BAR On Tree
in tkE yEAR 1760."
The tree is a giant beech and
because of the number of names
of persons^ towns and dates cut
in the bark the original inscription
is now unfortunately obliterated.
but its presence on the
tree.* about six feet from the
ground, is well known to the older
generation of donesboro. ?as it
was plainly legible 30 years ago
and the tree is known to every
one as Daniel Boone's "Bar"
tree.
A few years later than the date
on which Boone left this inscrip
