These are the pipe pieces from Stonetown so far. I think I'm dreaming but I'd like to try and reconstruct some for display at our annual Delta Heritage Festival. Archeologists use the stem hole sizes to help date some of the older pipes. I hope to use the different hole sizes to narrow down the task of gluing some pieces together. So far I have some PETER DORNI pipe stems, one that has McDOUGAL GLASCOW on it and one with just the initials C.P The bowls are pretty plain with wheat and flower designs and two have thirteen star designs.

Here's an example of the difference in stem hole size.
