    Willow. Leave it all. Return what you took, even if it costs money.

    I had a sneaking suspicion that it was willow, that's why I didn't dig through it. The old lady said it was, but she thinks everything is. She tried telling me the honey locust was willow.

    Better to burn it now, outdoors in a brush pile. Nasty stuff it is.
