Over half of balusters from Carthage bridge are sold

Over half of the 100 limestone balusters salvaged from the now-demolished Highway 96 bridge in Carthage, Missouri, were sold for $250 apiece. Dozens of the balusters were purchased within 30 minutes - mostly by locals - when they went on sale Friday as a fundraiser for Vision Carthage , a nonprofit dedicated to city beautification.
