It was a large,c heavy box which had to be lifted out by, a crane. Donna Sanderson waited' impatiently for the box to be opened in the hope that it might contain some buried treasure. It didn't. In fact, it was quite empty, but the box itself might be of some historical significance. A neighbour told the San- dersons that the box was used to keep meat in around 1900. Ice would be put in the bottom of the crate and then meat would be put on a grate over top of the ice. The grate is still in the boa, probably stored underneath the porch to keep it cool. Sandersons think the box is, so heavy because it probably has sand in the top and sides which would have been used as insulation. The Sandersons are also • speculating that one of the doctors who used to live in the old house used the box as a place to store medicines. What are the Sandersons going, to do with their old meat keeper? Well, they say they would like to sell it.
