In between getting ready for our opening, I've been trying to get a little gardening done . (i.e. planting windbreaks windbreaks for next winter). Why is my gardening in a Museum article? Because it turned out to be sort of a 'busman's holiday' ; I had just dug out a ten pound rock - there's been one in every hole, not to mention the, 50-odd small stones - when I noticed something metal. Not part of lost farm machinery - round - abouiÿthe size of a quarter - and marked "Un Sou Banque Du Peuple Montreal" on one side, "Agriculture and Commerce Commerce Bas Canada" on the other! As I found out later, this type of bank token was issued in 1837-38; it's not a r'are token by any means, but that doesn't matter. Probably some of you have already made similar finds this spring - perhaps of Indian artifacts much older than this token; in any .case, it's the excitement excitement of finding them that counts, and wondering how did that get there? and what is the story behind it? Good luck with your gardening - and finding some history. St. Saviours ANGLICAN CHURCH Orono, Ontario Regular Sunday Worship Service-10:00 a.m. Rev.
