A Confederate captain named John Mosby carried out a series of raids on Union troops and locations. Some historians believe he was able to collect a huge fortune. He eventually buried all the gold pieces. He never returned to it after the South lost the war. The large box in our classroom might be made of plastic, but it has just been dug up from between two very old trees near the Fairfax County Courthouse. Could this box contain Mosby’s fortune or is it just full of trash? For the answer, hard work is the key.
