- Warren Tennant Measures a Chinquapin (Yellow) Oak in the Arboretum, West Virginia University
- Date:
- 1968/10
- Description:
- 'West Virginia's best known oak tree, the third largest in the world and the largest in the state, is alive in WVU's Arboretum and as healthy as can be expected for a 400 year old tree. It's survival was inadvertently threatened last year by construction plans which inspired protests from throughout the state. When the architect's plans were revealed, WVU had them revised to spare the tree, which is about 80 feet high and 16 feet, five inches in circumference. It's top is missing, main trunk is hollow, scar on side. Warren G. Tennant, groundkeeper.'
