new morning finds - 5/30/2006 10:30:00 AM    03Malibu   Posts: 19 Joined: 5/29/2006 From: Maine Status: offline I went back out this morning, to a spot I posted about yesterday, and came across some more items...I pushed the surface dirt away and uncovered a few things, only 3 bottles, found a few pipes, a small vile that still had some powder in it, some silverware, and I dont know if its a drinking glass, but its shaped kinda like one and it has WALES etched in the bottom....the three bottles I did find (I dont know how old they are, I'm new to this, and dont really know what is what) one has "REGISTERED JACOB WIRTH & CO  BOSTON MASS"...another one says "HORLICK'S MALTED MILK"  and the other one says "T (middle letter is either two t's crossed or an & symbol) K FLAVORING EXTRACTS  FIRST QUALITY FULL 2 OZ."
