The writer of the postcard did not enjoy her train trip to Winona Lake. She mentions the H. C. Early preached a sermon. Early was a highly respected Church of the Brethren Elder.The Tree Spring was near the north end of Terrace Drive behind the Billy Sunday Tabernacle. It appears that artesian water flows naturally from the bung spigot on the side of the tree. Shortly before his death Al Cuffel admitted to running some plumbing in a hollow part of the tree to make it look like the water was naturally flowing from the maple tree.
