I was lucky enough to find an HS that wasn't from the wreck, although most of them are. Can you describe any of the other glass recovered from that wreck? Any inkwells or medicine bottles? The melon and HS have always been attributed to the Keene Marlboro Street Glassworks, managed by Henry Schoolcraft at the time (1817), but I am curious about the Caesar. Was it traveling to the states or coming from the states? Was the intention to fill these flasks with some fine Caribbean rum? If you have a moment... what are your thoughts? thanks, Mike
