I am helping to liquidate my fathers extensive collection of artifacts. Please see the pics for details. If you have any questions, or think I can enhance or correct a description, I'd really like to hear from you.
This pretty little (2in long) knife was found in a cultivated field near Erie Kansas on Canville Creek. Canville Creek makes its confluence with the Neosho River just west of Erie (37.5641 -95.2958). It was named for A. B. Canville who settled along its banks in 1847. A.B.... could have been scalped by this very knife. Ok, I doubt it but.... No. There's no way. This knife is much older than A.B. A.B. was a courageous man, and I give him due respect. It's fitting we remember him via naming a creek after him. Although.... I'm inclined to think this creek probably had a name, long before A.B. settled there. It was probably some name A.B. couldn't pronounce without bringing chuckles from the natives, so "Canville" creek it became and remained.
Remember, I'm paying for shipping!
