NOTES: New location and new clues as of 10/10/06. Some homework is required before "hitting the trail." HINT: Grover Cleveland is counted as the 22nd and 24th President.

Jeffersontown Cemetery is located near the heart of Jeffersontown. From Gaslight Square (the intersection of Taylorsville Road and Watterson Trail), take Watterson Trail south. The cemetery will be on your left. Park in either driveway. The cemetery is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Begin your search in the southern corner of the cemetery, near the intersection of Billtown Road and Ruckreigel Parkway. A large, flat stone lies about 7 paces (1 pace=2 steps) from the large tree. Standing on or near the flat stone, orient yourself so you can read the names on most of the tombstones.

Take a reading of 40 degrees and walk 16 paces to a tombstone with the last name of the 35th President of the United States, then

10 paces at 260 degrees to the 38th President
20 paces at 260 degrees to the 10th President
20 paces at 310 degrees to the 10th President
6 paces at 310 degrees to the 28th President
15 paces at 340 degrees to the 35th President
9 paces at 280 degrees to the 35th President

Finally, walk 15 paces at 340 degrees to a large holly tree. The box is hidden in the ivy at the base of the tree.

This is box seven in TP's Magic Kingdom series and a tribute to The Hall of Presidents attraction in Liberty Square in the Magic Kingdom and the Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln attraction at Disneyland in California.
