Geocache Description:

A man named Page, his son and son-in-law and a worker were hanged for the murder of Capt. Charlie Burkham and Levi Davis. A vigilance committee held a "trial" and used the tree at the coordinates above to hang them all.

From then on, the tree served the cause of "justice". There are many stories relating to this tree that have been passed down, but now it stands in peace as it still looks over the old Clarksville Cemetery.


The first stage of this cache is a plaque in Clarksville Cemetery. You do not need to enter the gates to read the plaque as it is visible from the sidewalk.

You'll need some data from the plaque to figure out the coords to the 2nd stage which is a camouflaged ammo can.

33.36.X N B
X = 2nd digit in the first date listed on the plaque.
N = 3rd digit in the first date listed plus 1.
B = the number of men of met their marker here.

95.03.S T A
S = 1st digit of the date the plaque was placed plus 1.
T = Add the two digit's of the tree's age plus 6. Use the first digit of the result.
A = The last digit of the 1st date listed on the plaque minus 7.
