Saturdays finds

[Old River]

Not a lot of good things, but it was fun. One small piece on the left has a patent date of Feb. 28, 1878. The heal tap dates to the same time. The clock parts were found at the same site. The gas valve was at another location. The door locks, and hinge was at the location where the small piece was found. All this was found in briar patches. My wife thought I had been in a cat fight when I come home. LOL
