This L6 chondrite was witnessed to fall on April 18, 1924 in Clay County, Arkansas. Very little is known about the circumstances surrounding this fall except for the fact that a single 3.5 kg stone was recovered. The main mass is currently on display at the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C. In March of 1993, renowned collector Jim Schwade acquired a 423.8 gram slice from the Smithsonian.
