ACCOUNT OF COINS FOUND AT NEWARK. 309
Messrs. Caparn, Harikey & Co., for the purpose of enlarging
their premises, had purchased and were taking down
a portion of what once had been the old gaol at Newark,
and it was in that part and perhaps six feet from the sur-
face where they and the jar were discovered. I under-
stand originally there were in all twenty-eight pennies,
eleven halfpennies, and some broken pieces of coins.
Several of the coins were given by the firm to friends, but
these which I have had the pleasure of examining and the
jar are still in their possession.
