War cannons recovered from Pee Dee River, SC


In this photo provided by the University of South Carolina, University of South Carolina archaeologist and state archaeologist Jon Leader washes and inspects one of the three Civil War cannons pulled from the Pee Dee River on Tuesday, Sept. 29, 2015, in Mars Bluff, S.C. The three cannons were dumped in the river by Confederate forces from the gunboat CSS Pee Dee in 1865 in order to keep them from falling into the hands of Union forces.
