So cool story. I was down at Shirley Plantation, finishing up a tour of Richomond-area history, and as I was leaving the gift shop, my eyes targeted this beauty.
There's a cool story behind it. Apparently Joseph Shelby (CSA) never surrendered, and with about a thousand troops, he rode into Mexico.
This is a replica of his sword. Perhaps some of my Northern kin will never understand why I have a Confederate "Never Surrender" sword.
Does anyone else have one of these? What do you think? Post pics?
