By Edgar L. Vincent
Dead under the beautiful tree!
He did not think when he lay down there in the shadow of that beautiful South American tree that never again would he rise to his feet. He was a stranger in that country and never had seen such a tree before. It looked so lovely! Its shade was so inviting, and he was so tired! And yet, another traveler coming that way found him lying there cold in death! The tree gave off a deadly poison. No one who remained within its influence ever went away alive.
