The first tree in Paul Harris' "Friendship Garden" was in honor of the late Walter Drummond, second secretary of Melbourne.
   

"..Many good will trees have been planted by Rotarians, including myself, in other cities in other countries, and many more doubtless will be planted, but the first of them all was Walter's tree." Paul P. Harris.
