***THIS BOX HAS GONE MISSING***

Jane Addams was an amazing women. The founder of the Hull House, the nation's first settlement house, in Chicago, IL. She was the first U.S. woman to win the Nobel Peace prize. Major thanks to Hart x6 for this AMAZING carve.

The Clues
Follow the black arrow. After the curver begin counting trees. Enter the cemetery between the second and third trees. Head to the obelisk near the tree line. Find Addams' grave. Identify the last letter on her epitaph (She wrote her own epitaph, by the way). That letter is the # letter of alphabet -- take that many steps to your left. Three trees are holding your prize. Please rehide the box out of sight after stamping in. I left a present for the first finder! Let my logbook misspelling be a word to the wise... don't prepare your letterboxes late into the night :)
