That cannon was removed in 1917, nobody knows where it went, possibly it was melted down as scrap.
What I'd always heard too! Remember that 1917 was the beginning of scrap metal drives for the War to end all wars here in the states!
Someone needed their ass kicked for that.
Think about it? A symbolism thing. Sacrifice and using something with a past history. Like this piece was used to fight Santa Anna! Now we are going to do our part and it will help Defeat the Kaiser!!!
