CURIOUS WAR RELICS.
Bullets From Opposing Armies Dur
inc Civil War Welded Together In
Mid Air.

Robert I. Knox & Bro. have in their
possession a curious war relic In the way
of two minnie balls that met ia mid air,
going in opposite directions and at
about the same velocity, and they so
united that the two became one. As they
.sere from opposite directions one must
be a Confederate ball aud the other a
Federal, but no one can tell which is the
Rebel or which 10 the Yankee. Inc
Messrs. Knox came into possession oil
them Just after the war and they were
found on the battlefield OF Spotsy lyaDia
Courthouse, In the vicinity oil the Bloody
Angle. This il a remarkable relic. but
we have seen one picked up on the same
battlefield more remarkable still. This
one Ia composed OF three minnie balls,
two Of them moving in opposite direc'
tians, "a was the case OF the Knox relic,
and third came at an angle OF about
thirty degrees and striking the other two
when they were joined together, fastened
itsell TO them, and 30 there was the
union OF the three balls, two OF them
probably Federal balls and the other
Confederate. This curiosity is the prop
erty OF Mr.. + l.. Landram, who lives at
the Bloody Angle farm. The battle on
this bloody field was fought on the l2th
of May, 1864. and was probably the
most desperate OF the Civil war.
