General Noble (tree) : ウィキペディア英語版 | General Noble (tree) The General Noble Tree was a Giant Sequoia tree located in the Converse Basin Grove in Giant Sequoia National Monument. The General Noble Tree was cut down in 1892 to create an exhibit for the 1893 World Columbian Exposition.〔''See'' McGraw, Donald J., "The Tree That Crossed A Continent", California History, Volume LXI, Number 2 (Summer 1982).〕 The General Noble Tree, with a ground perimeter of 95 feet (measured on a slope), was the second largest tree in the Converse Basin Grove (after the Boole Tree) and it was the largest tree ever cut down.〔''See'' Flint, Wendell D., "To Find The Biggest Tree", Sequoia Natural History Association (1987).〕 Although not among the very largest Giant Sequoias, the General Noble Tree was perhaps among the top 30 largest Giant Sequoias by volume before it was cut down.〔''See'' Flint, Wendell D., "To Find The Biggest Tree", Sequoia Natural History Association (1987).〕 The remains of the General Noble Tree are known as the Chicago Stump which can be seen in the Converse Basin Grove. ==References==
