[meteorite-list] Looking for an article on Santa Rosa

Hello all

Not too long ago, within the last year, someone posted an account of Henry 
Ward's acquisition of the Santa Rosa Iron.

It went into full detail of his plans to bribe the mayor and have the 
meteorite taken down and hauled away during a party where he got the whole 
town drunk, followed by the town outcry and nullification of his agreement 
with the mayor and being held up in Bogotá where he was finally able to take 
a slice and in so doing took more than allowed.

Finding condensed versions of the story but not the full detail version.

Any help appreciated,
