PIONEER GRAVEYARD'S PEARL
INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST #72
”Patrick's LITTLE SECRET"

This quest will take you to Noble Township in Wabash County.While Patrick and I were wandering around Matlock Cemetery, looking for Sheriff Andy Taylor, we discovered something else. A sound. What kind of sound you say? The sound of the wind whooshing thru the trees! So Patrick starts barking! But no, that's not it, there is no wind--follow that sound, Patrick. What is it? Oh, no, can it be? Yes, it's the sound of ---wELL, YOU WILL SEE. You can see the edge of the cemetery is being eroded away, there are some toombstones fallen half-way down...oh, well.


MOSS COVERED GRAVE

NOTE: Background photo (found on google search) is unknown location on Treaty Creek. Looks like a weir--there were a number of Grist Mills on the Creek at one time--or it could be associated with the Sewage Treatment plant that empties into the Creek, I don't know.

The cache container was a SMALL PLASTIC Peanut Butter Jar, muggled. Now it's a camo'd plastic spice jar. BYOP. Park with care. Who's the funniest clown you know? CLARABELLE! If you find a fallen US flag, please stick it back in the ground. As always, please be respectful, and cache in, trash out.
