The last stop different places.
This one beated me.
After hours finally I discovered this dump.
This is not a whole dump because the river took most of it before I got to it. Lol Anyway picket up the two litre beers that date about 1900. The brown broken has an H and other smaller H on the opposite base's side. This mark is new to me.
