Imgur用户Ifeelwhiteboywasted从他的祖父那里继承了一个旧碗橱,这个美国内战时代碗橱已经相传了好几代,算是个古董了,而在他把碗橱清干净之后,他突然注意到这个碗橱有点不对劲。

Imgur user Ifeelwhiteboywasted was given an old cabinet from his grandfather that was handed down over generations. When he went in clean it up a bit, he noticed something strange.

 

乍看之下这个碗橱似乎很正常。

At fist glance, everything seems normal.

但仔细一看就会发现这个碗橱有点怪怪的。仔细看两个抽屉之间的隔板,它跟上下的木板并没有贴合在一起。

But, when looking at the drawers, it seems strange that the middle divider isn't connected on top or bottom.

 

他发现这点之后就把两个抽屉抽了出来。

So, he pulled the drawers out.

这张图应该就很明显看得出来,中间的隔板绝对有暗藏玄机嘛!

Then he pulled on the middle divider.

所以他就把隔板抽了出来。

里面果然有个夹层,而且竟然还有装东西!

To his surprise, there was a secret compartment hiding behind the drawers.

 

他第一个拿出来的是这个神秘的金属物体,后来上网查了之后,他发现这应该是1800年代中期的散弹枪上膛装置。

The first item that he pulled out was this metal device. After doing a bit of research, it appears to be a shotgun reloading device from the mid 1800s.

 

还有一个装着子弹的小包。

The next item found was a pouch of pellets, most likely lead, used as ammunition.

 

最后一样东西是一本黑色封皮的书。

The final item was this black book.

 

打开之后的第一页写着「Carlsbad 1859」(卡尔斯巴德1859年),这是美国内战爆发的前两年,这几件物品被摆在同一个夹层,难免让人联想到内战。

Upon opening, the front page reads, Carlsbad 1859. That is two years before the Civil War. The combination of the three items leads to the belief that this secret stash is directly linked to the Civil War in some way.

 

而黑皮书的内容是圣经,保存如此良好的古老圣经应该可以卖到不少钱。

The book in fact is a bible. Many collectors would pay a pretty penny for a bible this old that is in such good condition.

 

因为这3件物品被藏在同个夹层真的太有意思了,theChive的编辑也忍不住去搜寻了一下这些物品可能的来历。

All three items are shown here. While it may not seem like much, there's got to be an interesting story behind it. So, I did some research to see about why these items were stashed in a secret compartment.

 

他的推测是这些物品的拥有者应该是来自新墨西哥州的卡尔斯巴德,卡尔斯巴德的居民在内战中两边都帮过,而这本圣经的主人当时可能也带着它到处跑,当时的很多士兵也是这样。

The fact that Carlsbad was written on the first page of the bible is a big clue. This likely means that the owner was from Carlsbad, NM as residents of Carlsbad fought for both sides in the Civil War.  The owner of the bible likely carried it with him during the war as many soldiers did.    As for why the items were stashed, there could be several options. Maybe the owner kept these items from the war and wanted to make sure they were kept in safe keeping as gun control ramped up dramatically in the west after the Civil War. Maybe this was a secret stash for emergencies. Hell, this stash could have even been used for hunting. Regardless, it's very cool to see that this slice of history was passed down for many generations. These types of historic items are also worth a lot when shown to the right collectors. So, if anything, this guy could maybe get away with some cash at the very least.  If you've got any ideas as to what these items are from, or why they may have been hidden, let us know in the comments below!
 
后来这些物品的拥有者可能是因为不想让这些物品被战火攻击,或是这些是紧急状况下备用的,才把这些物品藏进夹层里。
