The Tree was born of unusu- al and tragic circumstances in the pre-Columbian prairie that would become Nebraska. As a young tree, it was fortu- nate that it was not the victim of a tornado or other weather denizens. Once The Tree was a hundred years old, it was able to take the arrows of young Pawnee honing their skills as well as being part of their fes- tivals. Slaves fleeing the South looked for the bent branch on The Tree to point them cor- rectly onto the North. But The Tree valued above all the ones that came to talk to it, finding its shade and shelter a haven for their thoughts and even a spoken word or two. The Tree still grows today, in- viting others to come to its ha- ven.
