This cache is the first of the Presidential road series. Look for more in the near future. This is a typical KRISSCOP cache...which locals will get to know! I am moving back into this area from Kalamazoo, and this is a VERY typical Kzoo Cache type format.
You are looking for a metal bison tube hidden in a juice bottle. Sound wierd? LOL!!
GET completly off highway. Ample parking exits!!
Rutherford Hayes was born in Delaware, Ohio. His father had died 11 weeks before Rutherford's birth. He was raised by his mother and his maternal uncle.
Hayes became President following the most contested elections in history. Part of the compromise that allowed him to become President included the removal of federal troops from the South. Hayes fulfilled his promise, and thus ended reconstruction, and restored white supremacy to the South.
Hayes was a supporter of a strong currency. He opposed the Bland Allison Act that required the government to purchase silver monthly, thereby inflating the currency. The Bill was passed, in spite of Hayes' veto. He was a strong supporter of Civil Service reform, and repeatedly called for the funding a comprehensive civil service commission, but Congress refused.
