Mary on Saunders Students on their way to and from classes who passed a group of work men taking down a large maple tree on the campus near the Old Well here this week did not realize that in their casual glances they were witnessing an historic event. ' The tree, adjudged by campus keep ers to be a victim -of old age, , was the class tree of the University of North Carolina class of 1880. It was planted 65 years ago, in the spring of 1880, and much ceremony attended its planting. - i The late President Kemp P. Battle in . his history of the University de scribed the occasion, which originated the custom of planting a class tree a custom that continued for a num ber, of years. - i "A large audience of students, fac ulty and villagers was gathered in amphi-theater shape in the open space in front of the College well. The class then marched from the front door of -the South building, led by its president, Thomas .'H. Battle (son of President Battle, and father of Kemp D. Battle of Rocky Mount), carrying the class tree, a fine sugar maple, on his shoulders. "After forming-in. line in front of the audience they sang their . class song, written for them by Mrs. C. P. Spencer. A' class history, a class prophecy, etc., were then delivered. Charles B. Aycock, whose fame as an orator and great educational Gover nor is now so well known, was one of the chief speakers . . . (Another speaker was Locke Craig, another class member who. became Governor) . . . The tree was then planted on the edge of the 'Forbidden Ground'."
