Exclamation An amazing find on the Humber River

I'm not sure what exact history the Humber River in Toronto holds, but it does hide some mysterious secrets.

The other day, John, and a friend of ours and I went down to the river. Our friend told us that he'd found some relics he thought were from the Civil War.

I don't think they're Civil War era, more like the Indian/French war era. We were told that an Indian burial ground was in the area, the area has history dating back 12,000 years. I can't find the history unless I go to the archives or to the Library to try to find it.

So, while we were down there, our friend told us that there was a musket gun under the concrete where we were looking, and finally discovered pellets, probably from a musket gun.

There was a range of things there, and I'm still trying to uncover more of these balls. I have another bag of earth to go through, found 50+ pieces today so far.

I have put this up on eBay for auction, hopefully there's money to be had there.

Let me post some pictures so you can see what we found.
