Dec. 29, 1896

[pariswalk29 (NH)]

HI all, went to a new cellar hole here in NH and found some interesting things that I thought I would share with you all. A family member (Clair) came with me as we both checked out this new site. So far no coins, but lots of junk on the property.
I found this glass cover with a patented date of December 29, 1896. I don't know what type of jar or glass bottle it goes to, but it was worth keeping.
Also found right nearby were these 2 saws approx 47 inches long with teeth on them about 2 3/4 inches long. I can only thing they would be ice saws. If anyone thinks differently please let me know.
More updates to follow.

Have a good week.

The glass lid looks like a mason jar lid. The saws look to belong to Paul Bunyan.

The blades are sickle mower blades us in cutting hay..

Hi all
Thanks for the info NHbenz. The info was very informative. I took the blades to the Derry Historical Society and the owner Rick Holmes was a wealth of information. He said the blades were called Harrow blades which were used to cut hay and corn.
I will keep you updated as I go back to this spot and find more relics.

Thanks and good hunting
