Directions: From downtown Cincinnati, go east on Route 50 (Columbia

Clueless:
Park at the Mariemont Library. Collect your clues and exit the west
side of the library. To find the clues for this letterbox, you must
go to the Mariemont library and do some research. Some of it can be
done on the Internet if you wish, but there is at least one of the
clues that you must go to the library to find. Therefore, I am
providing the library web site so you can find their hours of
operation depending on the season.
