Civil War Era Ghost Town Gives Up Some Relics

[jimmyk]

Hi All:

Got to hunt again at a Missouri ghost town burnt during the Civil War with my 600 Equinox. A mixed bag of lantern parts, the brass bowl of a large spoon, a pice of glass, a pice of china, a broken part of a harmonica reed, some kind of tool, a piece of melted lead, three Civil War bullets and a flat button without a shank. A fun time hunting in spite of all the rain we've been having and the incresing heat.

Thanks for looking,

Jimmyk, Congrat's to you on some nice Saved CW Historical Relics. It's cool too that these came from a town that was burned during the war. That will be a story to go along with these artifacts. The piece of lead 3rd row down far left almost looks as if it was fashioned to a distinctive shape as to be used as a hook of some sort. Just a thought. Again, Well Done.
