Cannon Legend Tied to Anderson’s Past Recalled
Local groups consider locating a historic old cannon tied to Anderson’s two generation history. The piece once belonged to an artillery company before 1550, with muster grounds near Howard's oil field. It inspired pride through Confederate victory celebrations and resurfaced in 1876 during Wade Hampton’s campaign to restore state prospects.
