About 2 weeks ago I had gone into Stop & Shop in Coventry to do some shopping. Upon checkout when I was getting ready to pay for my items, I hear someone say, “I’ll get that.” She saw I was handicapped and walking with a cane. I turned and the lady behind me repeated herself. I said that wasn’t necessary and she told me she does this every year to honor her mother and Aunt. I could well afford to pay for my items but I graciously thanked her and thought to myself what a wonderful way to honor and remember a deceased member of one’s family by helping someone you think needs it. So, I decided to do the same by finding a Senior Citizen who lives alone and doing something nice for them. I’m sure the Dept. of Elderly Affairs, our Welfare Office or Senior Center can help me. I ask others to do the same as we always think of children at Christmas and there are many Social Agencies that help them and not too many think of our Senior Citizens who have no family.

Prayer to St. Jude
Most holy Apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the church honors and invokes you universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, of things almost despaired of. Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege given to you, to bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly (your request) and that I may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promise, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you. Amen. A.D.

Finding a rare Revolutionary War “Canteen or Wooden Bottle sufficient to hold one Quart”
One of my favorite items of Revolutionary War-era accoutrements is the canteen. Without it a soldier couldn’t stay hydrated and as such it was and still is an important part of their gear. With many being made from wood, they are rare survivors. I’ve been doing a lot of research on canteens made and issued in Massachusetts from 1756-1783 with an emphasis on the 1775 era. But there were also issues of canteens purchased by the Continental government, and original examples are quite rare. A few weeks back, I went to pick up a few Civil War-era items in Massachusetts. The dining room table was laid out with an array of common swords, a naval officer’s belt, and a few other items including what the owner called a “War of 1812” canteen. I went down the list of items with the owners until I got to the canteen. It had a label on one side marked “Canteen used/by William Fleming/of Oxford/township, Ches. Co. Pa/In the war of 1812.” It is a staved canteen with two interlocking hoops, a style used for
By Joel Bohy Historic Arms & Militaria Bruneau & Co. Auctioneers Cranston, RI many years, but as I picked it up and looked at the other side of the drum, I had to smile. It was branded “U:STATES” and was actually a Revolutionary War canteen! While it certainly could have been used during the War of 1812, this was a canteen with a Continental ownership stamp! I had seen a few of these in private collections and museums before, but never found one myself as there are only a handful known to exist.

A month before finding this canteen, I was at the National Museum of the U.S. Army at Fort Belvoir outside of Washington, DC. They have a similar example on display, formerly in the collection of Col. J. Craig Nannos. It has a very similar font branded on the drum, although the “S” on this example looks a little smaller and offset. I visited another example at the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia last week, although that brand is marked “USTATES” without the colon. I searched the service records at the National Archives for William Fleming from Oxford in Chester County, Pennsylvania and found one mentioned in the 4th Battalion in 1776, as well as later in the war. I also found one in Pennsylvania during the War of 1812, although there wasn’t enough information to nail down where in Pennsylvania he was from. I’ve been writing about canteens for another article I want to put together and had a few bad pictures of a U:STATES-marked canteen I was going to begrudgingly use (because of the picture quality), but now I have one can be photographed for my article before it is sold and goes to a new home. I know I mention this a lot, but it’s so cool to be able to find and handle such fantastic historic objects!

MUNCHIE Munch was a 4-week-old kitten who had lost his way and was sure to be a snack for another animal. He was very loud and made it very clear he wanted someone to find him and take him in, which is what we did. He is still vocal but only because he wants attention-which he definitely gets a lot of. He is about 7 years old now and loves Christmas.
