The evening’s story… The Filming of the fictional show “Murder, Mystery, & History” Season 13, Episode 1: A Revolutionary Treasure Airing on the S.E.A. Network Filmed in front of a live audience at the NC Maritime Museum in Beaufort During the winter of 1777-78, General George Washington and his army camped in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The army desperately needed food and clothing. On January 19, 1778, the Continental Congress called for pork, salt, blankets, tents, clothing, and other supplies for General Washington’s army. North Carolina answered the call. A route was quickly chartered to ferry supplies in through inlets and via North Carolina’s inner waters to complete the delivery. While most of the smuggled goods were manufactured goods, there is a legend of a lost treasure: A local resident, Mary Artie, has come forward with papers showing her ancestors sent a collection of coins and jewels through the coastal route only to have it disappear before reaching its final destination. Miss Story is coming to Beaufort to meet with both the family and Chris P. Bacon, a local historian, who believes he has located the lost treasure intact and forgotten for 250 years right in Beaufort, North Carolina! Reservations are required for the dinner, which is open to ages 18 and up. Tickets are $85 ($80 for Friends of the Maritime Museum, which sponsors the event) and include dinner and the show.
