what is it? - 8/6/2005 4:44:03 PM    wvbottlehead Posts: 220 Joined: 7/4/2003 From: WV Status: offline Found this while diggin, I first saw the female end stickin up I thought it was a piece of terra - cotta sewer pipe. It's 10 inches long, opening goes from 4" down to 3". Maybe an adapter for a chimney flue? I know it's not valuable but I can't chuck it - yet.
