Two artillery enthusiasts who are owners of The Big Guns alerted authorities when they discovered that a mountain howitzer, Alger & Co. number 210, was being advertised for sale at auction in late April. The gun was listed on Wayne Stark's National Register of Surviving Civil War Artillery as having been stolen from the Wabasha, Minnesota, courthouse in 1980. A companion mountain howitzer stolen from Wabasha at the same time, Ames Co. number 37, has ... been recovered from the current possessor. Both the cannon were part of the estate of a Connecticut collector, but it is not known how they came into his possession.

Artillery in the 1800's fought side by side with infantry units because the range of the big guns limited them to visible targets. Like the infantry weapons, Civil War-era cannon were muzzle loaders and required a crew of eight men to aim, load, and fire the weapon. Maintaining the large guns was an important job and discipline in the artillery was very strict due to the value of the weapon. One artillery unit was referred to as a battery. Composed of six cannon and just over one hundred men, the battery was commanded by a captain. Many batteries were companies of an artillery regiment.
