Geocache Description:

This cache is one of 4 caches relating to Alice in Wonderland's "The Queen of Hearts"

The "Queen of Hearts" caches are the first in a series about Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland".
The Queen of Hearts character is the ruler of Wonderland and is known by her strict and absolute order
"Off with their heads!"

In the courtroom of the King & Queen of Hearts a trial began to see who had stolen the Queen's tarts. The White Rabbit blew 3 blasts on his trumpet and read from a small scroll:
" The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts, all on a summer day.
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts, and took them quite away. "
So the trial of the Knave of Hearts began.
As testimony of witness after witness showed NO evidence as to who stole the tarts, The Queen finally gave up. The King said " Let the jury give their verdict!" " No! No! " said the Queen.
Punishment first---verdict afterward. Alice replied: Nonsense! The idea of having the punishment first!! The Queen turned purple with rage. "Hold your tongue!" She cried. "I won't !" said Alice.,
"Off with her head!" The Queen shouted at the top of her voice. "Who cares for you?"
Said Alice. She had grown back to her full height by this time. "
You're nothing but a pack of cards!"
