A cannon barrel manufactured 164 years ago again belched fire and smoke Sunday. The cannon, manufactured in 1862, was part of the popular artillery display during the 48th annual Ohio Civil War Show at the Richland County Fairgrounds in Mansfield.

The show included full-size cannons, limbers and caissons. -- Article
