One revolving police traffic sign
One large phonograph horn
One dishpan full of crullers (taken in a masterly

One tent
One duffel bag with cooking set

One scout belt axe
One Thanksgiving horn

A skein of clothesline
A small kitchen-range shovel
Two boxes filled with canned goods
One box filled with loose edibles
One ice cream freezer
