Thirsty?  Need a little shot of “Old Red Eye” to perk you up?  What’s that you say – its Prohibition and alcohol is illegal?  What’s a person to do to get a little liquid libation?  What you had to do was place your order, pay your money and visit the southwest corner of the Hamilton City Cemetery where you would find a lone tombstone standing. At the base of the monument were four nameplates attached by thumb screws.  Remove any of the nameplates and there—in the hollow inside the monument—would be your order waiting for you.  No fuss, no muss – and if the authorities caught you with your illegal contraband, you didn’t know who your “bootlegger” was!  A testimony to the ingenuity of Prohibition Era alcohol sales. 

T=Terain - 1.5; D=Difficulty - 1.5; S=Size - Small.
