WASHINGTON ELM AND MEMORIAL STONE, CAMBRIDGE, MASS. The suburbs of Boston are remarkably beautiful. To drive through them almost anywhere within twenty miles of the city is like riding through a park adorned with villas and rural palaces. One of the suburbs, Cambridge, is attractive from his shaded streets and elegant residences. Almost within a stone's throw of the Harvard University (which is situated here), in the centre of a broad, old-fashioned street, is an aged tree, before which stands a granite tablet. On this in gilded letters is an inscription telling us that beneath this tree Washington took command of the American Army on July 3, 1775. See article on previous pages.
