Caption: Cannon Located on the Village Green Near Exchange Street
Additional Description: The cannon, known as a "Red Shirt" cannon, was placed on the square in 1907. During the 1950s, the cannon was "borrowed" by Clemson cadets and taken to the Furman Campus where it was loaded with blanks and fired. Reports are that the shock was so strong, it blew out windows in the Furman neighborhoods.
