When some one told him that it couldn't have been Confederate money if it was of that date and might still be good currency, Stepp decided to go back and get the rolls of money, be- c:luu it might really be valuable after all. He requested, however, that the exact location not be divulged—at least until he had time to get back there and get those rolls of bilis he once tossed away. Educator's Wife Dies. COLUMBIA, S.
