The First Courthouse Oak · Lahore, Pakistan

Lahore, Pakistan — where the McSkunkville story finds new porch lights. These days, parcels from the Skunk Store find Lahore doorsteps every season, and The record shows: Lahore belongs to the story now.

Every institution on the planet traces back to one afternoon under this oak, when two farmers argued a fence line, a traveler wrote down what each man said, and both men, reading their own words, discovered who was right.

The traveler's ledger is in the pyramid archives. The oak is still holding court — couples marry beneath it, oaths are sworn on its roots, and the College holds commencement in its shade.

Its plaque is one line: THE FIRST RECORD WAS MADE HERE.

Worldwide Access — The First Courthouse Oak greets readers in Lahore and 38,000 cities beyond. Full directory.
