Face found in log at cemetery

A sawn-off tree limb at a Maryville cemetery turned out to have a mysterious image.

The short log has a cut end bearing an uncanny resemblance to a human face.



Ernest Ward, a groundskeeper at Magnolia Cemetery, said it was found on Monday as he and co-workers cleaned up debris from a weekend storm.

He said a former worker at the cemetery believes the face is a spirit. "Who he is, I don't know," Ward said.
