"I Think That I Shall Never See..."

A 300 year old "Liberty Tree" -- a marker on the Underground Railroad -- was cut down in Massachusetts after city leaders determined it was too damaged to save. It served as a meeting place for abolitionists including Frederick Douglass. Townspeople had hoped to win National Historic Register status for the sycamore and build a park around it. (WFRV-TV)
