THE
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
MEMEORIAL OAK
THIS TREE (A SCARLET OAK) WAS PLACED HERE
BY THE ROOSEVELT NATIONAL LIVING MEMORIAL
ASSOCIATION, AS A LIVING TRIBUTE TO THE
GREAT LOVER AND DEFENDER OF COUNTRY AND
FLAG, AND OUR YOUNGEST PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES - THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
THIS SPOT WAS CHOSEN BECAUSE IT WAS VERY
NEAR TO THE ONE WHERE WE DEDICATED THE
TEMPORARY MONUMENT IN 1918 TO THE FRANKLIN
COUNTY BOYS WHO FELL IN THE LATE WAR.
