I went snorkeling today for about an hour near a place many people launch tubes and kayaks, before walking upstream to an old 1892 Dam and powerhouse location. I found many old whole bricks with names imprinted in them which I left together for possible grabbing later. When I 1st saw the object at the bottom of the picture, I almost freaked out thinking it was a civil war shell, but then noticed the ring and rope at the bottom. HEAVY, because it's all lead! 18lbs. Anyway I also found another Yoke. I could tell by the center piece and then noticed the hooks and rings were still attached at the ends and although most of the wood had rotted away, there was still enough enact wood to have all the metal parts still attached. Very cool. I just happened to already have these three other Yokes to compare it with and the one closest has nearly matching parts. Everything is River Treasure!!!
