Lone Pine, scene of some of the bloodiest hand-to-hand fighting during the Galiipoli campaign, will be perpetuated in a Lone Pine tree planted in the Marsden Valley cemetery earlier this month. The tree was grown from a seedling from this lone pine. In this photograph, Lieut-Colonel C.B.Brereton, patron of the Nelson Galiipoli Veterans' Association, plants the tree. Assisting him are Mr D.H. Leigh, superindendent of reserves, and Mr F.E.Oakes, president of the association.
