1945: TRENTON'S WOODEN WATER PIPES

Every history-minded person knows about the wooden water pipes which once served the downtown area of Trenton. A number of years ago, a lady called me and asked me if I was interested in a piece of an original wooden water pipe from Trenton. Realizing that I was not a craftsman who could turn that old relice into a coffee table, I gave her my "No thenks."

Tom - A piece of this water pipe from Trenton is housed in the John Abbott II House in the borning room. It was a gift to the Historical Society.
