CHILTON
--SPL--The early settlers found both prairie and dense thickets here. Tall grass and myraids of wild flowers made a garden of the prairie. Along the creeks there were dense woods and thickets. Postoak, hickory, ash elm, hackberry, cedar, pecans, liveoak, Spanish oak, mulberry, willow and, of course, mesquites were found in abundance. Game was plentiful. Deer, antelopes, bears, wolves, coyotes, wildcats, buffaloes and "lions" were here in the early days.**********
