well, I don't have particularly acid soil, but they've thrived for the 8 years
I've been here.  I'll have to check on the chlorosis, but I don't think
they're suffering.  We have had three years of summer drought, though, and the
last two falls have also been desperately dry.  All trees are stressed.  I
wonder if removing lower limbs on these sassafras trees has been the shock
that caused the missing leaf variation?

I agree with you that it is wonderful to have this tree present.  Are they
becoming rare?
