Tier town had to Dewart their Home. The site was Superb for building a town. They had Only to Clear the River Bank Felling a part of the Forest of the immense Virgin Forest rooted there Sinco the begin Ning of the world. Then sheltered a around by wooded Hills the town would descend to the quays of a magnificent har Bor established at the Mouth of the red River but four Miles from the As soon As the government at washing ton had granted the privilege carpenters and Wood choppers went to work. But you never saw such a Forest. Clinging to the boil with All its vines with All its roots when they felled it at one end it sprang up again at the other acquiring fresh youth from its wounds and each blow of the axe brought out Green buds. The streets the town squares barely marked out were invaded by vegetation. The Walls grew less quickly than the Trees and As soon As raised crumbled beneath the upheaval of the still living roots. To overcome this resistance that dulled the Blades of the hatchets and axes they were obliged t live recourse to fire. Soon an enormous town All in Wood like Chicago stretched along the Bank o red River with its Broad straight streets numbered and glittering about its squares its merchants Exchange its markets its churches its schoolhouses and the whole maritime train of Sheds custom House stations docks depots and shipyards. The town of Wood Woodstown As they called it was speedily peopled by the plaster dry ers of new places.

Hence what terrible hatred it cherished against that town of thieves. While Winter lasted they perceived Noth ing. The people of Woodstown heard occasionally a hollow in their roofs in their furniture. From time to time a Wall was Cleft asunder a store counter noisily burst in Twain. But new Wood is subject to such accidents and no one attached any importance to them. However at the commencement of sudden fleece Spring so Rich in sap that they heard it beneath the ground like the babbling of soil began to be agitated up heaved by invisible forces. In each House the furniture the partition Walls swelled and they saw upon the floors Long bulges such As Mark the passage of a mole in the Fields. Neither doors nor ing in any longer. It is the said the inhabitants. When warm weather comes that will to a Ted user Evert roof. Suddenly on the Morrow when a great storm come from , which brought summer amid its scorching lightning and lukewarm rain the town when it awoke uttered a cry of stupor. The red roofs of the Public buildings the be Fries of the churches the floors of the houses and even the Wood of the bedsteads were sprinkled with a Green tint thin As Mold Flimsy As lace. Closely examined it was a Quantity of microscopic buds in which the Rolls of leaves could already be distinguished. This Freak of the Raim amused without causing alarm but before evening bouquets of verdure were Blooming the furniture upon the Walls. The branches grew As they looked at them. Lightly grasped by the hand one Felt them grow and struggle like fluttering wings. The following Day All the apartments had the appearance of greenhouses. Vines clambered up the rails of the stairways. In the narrow streets the branches joined one roof to another casting Over the noisy town the gloom of the avenues of Forest. Matters were becoming alarming.
