HUMBOLDT — A construction project turned into a unique history lesson this week when Humboldt High students hit upon some Civil War artifacts.
Olivia Black, a building trades student, was helping with the group’s next venture, building a home in the 500 block of Pecan Street.
Black was helping dig out soil a couple weeks back when she spotted a small piece of metal.
Neither she nor class instructor Scott Murrow knew what it was, only that it featured an eagle clutching a wreath in front of a field of stars.
