Title
School - Tin Water Dipper
Description
This tin water dipper is the original dipper from the Capen/Riverside school house. See Helen Magargal's book 'Early Schools' which tells of pupils breaking the ice in winter to take water with the dipper. We also have 2 tin pails which may have been used for water carrying in the school house. (There is a note indicating that this dipper is a 'gift of Mrs. Ruth Witherow. It belonged to her late husband's mother.')
