Nicholas Rash portrays his cousin, Alfred Silver, whose brother, Charlie was brutally murdered by his wife in December of 1832. Alfred recalls the search for his brother, including a visit to an enslaved individual in Tennessee who used a "Conjure Ball" to determine where his brother might be. This is another viewpoint of this famous legend, which has been told for nearly 200 years.
