Hello Mike,

The meteorite was recovered after the finder responded to a want ad put up
by a member of the Kansas Meteorite Society. The finder was out hunting
(pheasant or quail IMO) and thought he heard something fall in some trees
near him. A couple days later the hunter returns to the location and finds
the meteorite, which appears to be very fresh.

Jerry is the better person to ask on the details as he was more involved in
the transaction then I was and it was six months ago, so take this as a
third hand recollection.

No one seen it fall and it didn't hit any man made items so it is not a
fall, although it looks fresh enough to be one.

Clear Skies,
Mark
