Newspaper article: "Ancient oak owes longevity to plaque it stoutly bears". Plaque reads: "This tree was planted by Nathaniel Adler, Esq. on the occasion of the visit of His Royal Highness Prince Alfred, August 6th 1860".
Typed note: "Oak Tree. As at 1977.11.19. In the northwestern part of St. George's Park, Port Elizabeth against the fence of the granstand at the Union Cricket Ground is an oak tree bearing a plate: 'This tree was planted by Nathaniel Adler, Esq. on the occasion of the visit of H.R.H. Prince Alfred, August 6th 1860'. This tree has therefore been there fro 117 years, but it is a very poor specimen of oak with a weak spread of branches, certainly not a good example for its age. It is typical oak".
