Origins[]

Ira Aten was a Texas Ranger during the Fence Cutting War in the American west. He would place dynamite under certain fences and wire them together so the dynamite would detonate when the wire was cut.

Effects[]

When an object is wired to the dynamite, the dynamite is considered live and will detonate when the object is moved. The proceeding explosion will then chase after the nearest person in a five foot radius.

Collection[]

This artifact was originally found by Subhas Chandra Bose and was in his cache of artifacts. It was collected by agent Jane Harpe on July 1, 1945.
