Reply to comment by SpiritOne in TIL about the only double barrel cannon in the world. When it was its first tested during the American Civil War, the chain snapped immediately and one ball tore into a nearby cabin, knocking down its chimney; the other spun off erratically and struck a nearby cow, killing it instantly. by ExpertPreference8481

Almost a mile apart. The cannon is by the court house and the tree is near Brumby Hall.

Yeah, I wouldn’t consider it close at all. I guess it’s close in that it’s located in the same town?
