THE RED COW WANDERER
Allen Macpherson House, Napanee
As a young lawyer living in Napanee from 1832-34, John A. visited his step cousin, Allan Macpherson.
One Christmas, John A’s cousin Helen Macpherson presented John A.
and his friend with a banner for the “Society of the Red Cow”,
which the fun-loving young men formed after a red cow wandered into Hugh Macdonald’s homestead on Hay Bay.
THE PUZZLE
The final location will be at
N 44° 15.A3B W 076° 56.59C
At the posted coordinates you will be stopped outside the Allen Macpherson House.
This is a nice easy puzzle, as AB&C are all the same number.
Look at the bottom left window on the house.
Count the number of panes of glass and divide that number by 8
