My town i live in dates back to the early 1800's There was even a raid that went through it back then also. And from what i understand is early 1900's a fire ended up taking about 50% of the town. Was driving by what looked like an old foundation. There were old cement stairs(3 i think) that lead to nothing lol. So with the town being as old as it was i thought i would give it a hunt. More so hoping for older silver or copper.(no luck with that but i did find a few stranges Ones you look at and wonder what they were to. The first pic. i have no ides on what it might have been to or what it is. In the middle of the 4 pics. is what it looks like all in all i would say its about 2 1/2 to 3 in. Then the 2nd pic says LONERGAN Phila. PA U.S.A on it. I took pics of small latch open and closed. Theres on threads on the inside so it makes me think that theres was some type of screw that went up through the big hole. What it almost looks like is an older salt or pepper things. You would slide it open to pour what ever out. Its a heavy metal. Any ideas on what it might have been would be great thanks and HH
