      People would stow their luggage on the running boards especially if they owned a car with a rear rumble seat. That was an accessory that was used to keep the luggage in place while driving. Glad you liked the photos at the end. I love those old portrait style pictures as they really help bring our past to life. I thought it was time to put them at the end of an episode. Hopefully, people like seeing them as I would like to run more of them from time to time. Thanks for watching this one. ATB Greg

    I absolutely agree with you Greg. Dig it all and you'll find some amazing things but that's probably the reason my car looks like a scrap yard. As far as the mystery find is concerned it looks like a carrier thing for a bearing. I absolutely love finding a sewing circle I was lucky enough to locate one on a property from the 1840s. There was a silver symbol three brass or copper thimbles. As well as three needles and a plethora of buttons.

      Glad you enjoyed this one Judy and I love detecting at that place specifically because so many of the things that I find, I can directly tie to the students and faculty that worked, attended and lived there. It's also one of only two black colleges that were established in TN to educate the freed slaves after the war. I once found a Navy dog tag from WWII there that belonged to one of the students. I was able to trace it back to the person and was able to relay his life story in the Finding America episode that I put out. It's a very special place.
