THE HORSE SOLDIER
Selection of Dug, Untouched Relics


The following items were part of a private collection, the contents of which were excavated in the 1950's - 1960's. They were later donated to the Wentworth Military Academy, and recently de-acquistioned by same and sold at auction. The Academy, located in Lexington, MO, was founded in 1880 as Hobson's Select School for Boys; a year later it was sold and re-named the Wentworth Male Academy. It gradually evolved into a military school, officially changing its name to Wentworth Military Academy in 1890. It is the oldest military school west of the Mississippi, and is now co-educational.

All of the items are still in their dug, untouched, never cleaned condition.

****THE FINAL GROUPING OF NEW ITEMS WAS ADDED ON OCTOBER 6, 2008.****

***THREE DE-ACTIVATED SHELLS WERE ADDED ON OCTOBER 23, 2008.***
