largest coins minted until 1352 when Edward III issued groats As Edward I established 30 furnaces in London and one or more in sev- ¬ eral of the great English burghs at- ¬ tention was naturally

conclusions that the rouleaux of silver coins were hidden in the earth by the Cistercian brethren under circumstances of im- ¬ pending danger The field surround- ¬ ing the religious abode has not been plowed for a period of 30 years but in view of the interest awakened in tho locality it is proposed to turn it up this season An earnest of what may follow these efforts is shown in the form of a
