This 19th Century Grave Has a Puzzle to "Confuse the Devil"
John Renie of Monmouth, Monmouthshire, Wales, UK, lived from 1799 to 1832. Find A Grave, an exhaustive wiki of gravesites around the world, informs us that Renie was a pious man and was intensely worried that Satan would somehow steal his soul upon his death. He prudently designed a puzzle for this gravestone to “confuse the Devil” about his location whilst Renie made his way to Heaven. The puzzle consists of a wordfind that spells out “Here Lies John Renie” in 46,000 possible combinations.To make things harder on the Devil, Renie’s body is not even buried here.-via Cemetery Club | Photo: Dawnsraig#graves #tombstones
