Whatever happened to these two bronze cannons in SC?
« on: February 18, 2009, 04:21:13 PM »
I found the clipping and the sheet of paper while looking through some old Navy records at the National Archives.  The tubes in question were British 6-pounder bronze guns cast ca. 1800.  Where are they today?

I photographed the document in four sections, top and bottom of front and back of the sheet, to make it more legible.  I'll put the direct links at bottom of page in case anyone needs a larger image.
