Description
Collection of five tin officer jewels; three tin working tools; a set of chalk, charcoal, and clay (with two examples of chalk and clay, respectively). While these objects were found amongst Northern Light No. 190's paraphernalia, it is not certain they belong to this lodge and, therefore, no definite date can (as yet) be determined. Northern Light No. 190 was chartered in 1868 and these jewels and tools may be the originals temporarily used by the brethren prior to purchasing or making new ones. A: Trowel B: Junior Deacon's jewel C: Treasurer's jewel D: Plumb C: Master's Set Square Jewel F: Treasurer's Jewel G: Master's Set Square Jewel H: Nail possibly fashioned into poinard for ceremonial use I: Charcoal J: Chalk K: Chalk L: Clay M: Charcoal Cigar box (1867)
