check this out. Its a cannon ball from the war of 1812.Back when the US didn`t like Canada.But we`re all good now
After WW2 My great grandfather bought a farm .While working the land (plowing) he found a few cannon balls.
So looking into the history of the property. It turned out a general lived there after the war of 1812.And he had some surplus armor from that war..a cannon!
It was said every New Year he would blast it off at midnight.
I can piture that. Cigar in mouth some Scotch Whisky being splashed around Blasting it off Cool! safety first
