Varina Montana

Virginia City was a boom town without any law. A Vigilance Committee was established to control claim jumpers, robber, thieves, killers and the like. They came up with a Motto.
It was 3-7-77. We don't know what it means. Some think it means the depth of a grave and the measurements of a coffin. If you look closely at the insignia on a highway patrol car in Montana or the patch on the patrolman's shirt you will see 3-7-77.

Maybe we should call the Montana Highway Patrol and ask them what is stands for. Do you have the phone number?
