Image of Virgin Mary Seen on Cortlandt Street Tree

Around Town - Tarrytown-Sleepy Hollow, NY Patch

The following excerpt is from Tarrytown.patch.com:

Right across from the Holy Cross Church on Cortlandt Street police erected barricades overnight to control a crowd of people that had gathered to see something sacred in the tree bark.

On Sunday, a Sleepy Hollow resident who had probably passed the tree innumerable times, suddenly noticed a pattern resembling the Virgin Mary. The image rests in about a three-inch knot above eye level in the bark of a young, otherwise negligible, tree.
