I wonder if Molly still accepts payment in confederate currency?

the city was home to two major hospitals and the famous Noble Brothers cannon foundry.

The "Six Sigma" guys at the Noble Brothers cannon foundry knew those defective cannons could ruin everything.

So they hid them from upper management.

Who knew it would take a 140 yrs to find them??? ;-)

Maybe this is the graveyard portrayed in "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly!"

No records have been found that indicate they were removed from the city

What city? Nowhere in the article does it mention where this mystery is located.

Excellent book! Sequel, ok but not as good as I recall. Are there more than two in his Cival War series? Never read his WWII series of alternate realities, though.

I think once they dig it up, they will find out that it is the career of the Dixie Chicks.

Great response! LOL!

actually, whatever it is hasn't been dug-up because it's in a cemetery.

IF it turns out to be a metal coffin & there was no court order to exhume it, somebody's in BIG TROUBLE!
