Solution to The Case of the Civil War Sword

As soon as he had read the words on the blade, Encyclopedia knew the sword was a fake.

The two clues were the words Bull Run and First.

Jackson’s men, being Southerners, would have called the battle by the South’s name for it, the Battle of Manassas. Bull Run was the name given to the battle by the North.

Also, the sword was supposed to have been given to Stonewall Jackson in August 1861. No one could have known then that there would be another battle on the same spot the next year, in 1862.

Only after both battles had been fought would anyone have used the word first to describe the battle fought in 1861.
