Civil War Exhibit at the Huntington

No - I never heard that either Powell NOR JWB had a sheath to their knives.... since they apparently did - Powell's could very well have been attached to his saddle; especially since it does not appear in his list of personal effects. JWB probably did have it sheathed in his trouser band - that would make sense as would the knives being sheathed in both guys' (Powell's and JWB's) boot tops at the times of the attacks.....

Thanks ya'll!
