Friend of mine was on staff at Shenandoah U Pharmacy School...

Local pharmacist in historic district was expanding his store which had been there since before the Civil War, broke through a wall and found a hidden room with a bunch of old stock, labware and a number of documents. Found two sets of ledgers that the owner kept, one for when the Union was occupying the town, one for when the Confederates were in charge. Didn't want them to think he was helping the "other" side while they were there. He got to go down and catalogue a lot of the artifacts they found. They donated all of the lab equipment and documents to the University for display. Reminded me of the ferry scene from The Outlaw Josey Wales
