In their words

Quoted character for character from the printed page, with the page it is on.

In 1925, the major project was the construction of a Forestry Club Cabin in Peavy Arboretum, just west of a knoll covered with young Douglas-fir trees.

Marvin Rowley, #15 Marvin Rowley , p. 122

I think they cut a lot up for wood or something; took it down to the Forestry Club Cabin.
