I dug 2 1/2 hours Saturday with no luck. I went back yesterday and dug a different direction with luck! It was an area with dense broken glass and I was surprised that I would find bottles that were complete or partial complete. It was difficult to dig due to the LARGE amounts of broken glass but I pressed on! I found this privy last year and I've dug over 100 complete bottles and lost count of the partial bottles. 5 are embossed: Reed's Tonic and Dr. J. Hostetter's bitters, C. Conrad's Original Budwizer (small beer bottle), B.A. Fahnestocks Vermifuge (broken neck) and Mallinckroot Chemical Works St. Louis (found the company on Internet but not this bottle). I noticed that I'm finding bottles with "C" embossed on the base. There are a few companies that could be it but not sure. I did my research but nothing concrete yet. These were dug in Mississippi. Oh and these were taken inside bc it's raining out. Sorry for bad lighting! My Wifi is down so I had to send pics through cell phone service and they're not clear at all!

Awesome finds, :thumbsup:
 

You have a pretty sweet spot there congrats on the bitters bottles.
 

Hey bb, did you clean the bottle dump by the river that you were digging in last year?

Yes it's the same place! I stopped digging in November bc we deer hunt in the same location. Saturday was my first time back since Nov.
