    Help identifying bottle

    Question about digging a privy

    Thanks for the guidance Willong. I will make sure that I am prepared and go slowly if in fact I do locate antique bottles in their (or any) privy. I'm sure there are going to be some heart-breaking broken glass bottles, but I hope to minimize them. Cheers! -Kerry
