STORY An old oak tree, thought to he endangering property in the front yard of the James R. Wright home on Shortoff, mar Highlands, which' had stood for almost a. century and had 'shaded the lawn of the Wright family for 60 '. years, was cut down a few days ago. Mr. Wright decided to help the boys saw it into firewood lengths, and in doing so found an: ice horse shoe imbedded in the tree to a lepth . of four or more inches. Mrs, L. M. Leas, in accounting for the horseshoe, said it was' nailed to the tree by her father, the late Marion Wright, for a "hitching post" 00 years ago. Only a' few of the older genera tion, remember the ice shoes worn by horses here in pioneer, days, as horses were few and far be tween and ox-teams were the order of the day. The ice shoes were put on over the regular horseshoes with iron bolts and were studded with corks, making a dependable non-skid shoe, much needed in those days when, as Mrs. Leas said, winter snows to a depth of one1 to four feet, with plenty of ice, were the rule and not the exception. She recalls the pleas ure the family had in coming to church on Sunday mornings . over deep .snows in sleds drawn by horses shod in this; manner. Mrs. Leas' grandfather, James Wright, settled in the Shortoff section in 1865, 'and the ice horse shoe found in the tree was one of a number bought by him from Charles Hutchinson shortly after the latter'. arrival here in 1872 in company with S. T. Kelsey, who later founded the town of High lands. The ice horseshoe has been nail ed to the gate post at the quaint old Wright home in the shadow of Shortoff mountain, as a link be tween the old days of the horse-and-saddle mode of mountain trav el and the present high-powered automobile days. needed for those whose homes have been destroyed by. repeated bombings; as well as cots, blank? ets and other necessities of life. The committee in charge of the Highlands branch of Bundles for Britain will welcome the assistance of all those interested in aiding this great humanitarian cause.- LEGAL ADVERTISING NOTICE OF SALE .
