This is the condensed version of the actual log sheets kept from every hunt.

Date of last hunt: Friday June 6, 2003

Length of hunt: 4 Hours.

Location of hunt: Construction site in Central Texas.

Equipment used: Shovels, Rakes and Sifters.

Items found: Large 1 5/16" Blue Bennington Marble, Burnett's Cocoaine bottle, Sherrouse Medicine Co. bottle plus numerous other plain medicines, Glass stoppers and sodas.

Comments: This construction site has yielded quite an assortment of good finds for me and other hunters. The bottles range in age from 1890's up into the 1950's. Oddly enough they are mixed together in no definite layering. The Burnett's Cocoaine bottle was featured in an 1891 advertisement as a shampoo for dandruff.
