Our previous Mystery Photo
Our July 27 mystery was another of our “close-up” mysteries. Lots of sleuths correctly identified the steeple of St. Philip’s Church in Charleston.
Hearty congratulations to: Dale Rhodes of Richmond, Va.; Shay Shealy West, Val Valenta, Mike LeFevre and Bud Ferillo of Columbia; Charles E. Davis of Aiken; Addison Ingle of Charleston; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Philip Cromer of Beaufort.
Graf, as usual, provided more context: “According to discoversouthcarolina.com, Buried in St. Philips graveyard are revolutionaries, politicians, confederates and artists. Among them are Col. William Rhett, known as the “Scourge of the Pirates,” charged with bringing the murderous Blackbeard and Stede Bonnet to justice. Edward Rutledge, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Pinckney, a signer of the Constitution, and John C. Calhoun, a US senator and vice president of the US also are interred here.”
Send us a mystery: If you have a photo that you believe will stump readers, send it along (but make sure to tell us what it is because it may stump us too!) Send to: feedback@statehousereport.com and mark it as a photo submission. Thanks.
We Can Do Better, South Carolina!
