This is going to be a great story to watch unfold.  The cigar sized box was buried in 1795 by Gov. Samuel Adams, patriot Paul Revere, and William Scollay, a militia officer during the Revolution at the cornerstone of the capital that was then finished in 1798. The box is currently being examined and imaged prior to being opened.
