Ultimately, the cherry tree died. After sometime, his father found out about what had happened to his favourite tree. He came home angry and wanted to know the guilty. But nobody could tell him anything. Just then, George, with his little hatchet came into the room. "George," said his father, "do you know who killed my beautiful little cherry tree in the garden?" This was a difficult question for George to answer. He was silent for a moment. But collecting himself quickly, he answered, "I cannot tell a lie, father. You know I cannot tell a lie! I did cut it with my little hatchet.when he was six years old.tree which he planted himself.
