many present concerned the origin
date required for antique silver.
This DR.. Cutten placed at 1900.
Although DR.. Cutten expressed
no disappointment, he said that
the display on hand contained
little American silver dating from
the 17OOs. He added, however, that
the shortage was true of all North
Carolina and gave the reason for
the disappearance as being due to
the necessity of southerners melt
ing their silver into coin following
the Civil War.
Following his lecture, DR.. Cut
ten spent an extra hour analyzlng
the old silver at hand.
