Varner-McIntosh Museum Creates Much Interest

The William McIntosh chapter, D. A. R., have opened a museum in connection with the Varner-McIntosh Memorial at Indian Springs, and the exhibit of relics is creating much interest among visitors at Indian Springs. The price of admission is only 10 cents and the exhibit is certain worth more than several times that amount.

Many of the articles were donated by Newman Hungerford, of Hartford, Conn., who has always manifested keen interest in Indian Springs and its history. William McIntosh-s pipe, a spinning wheel, register of the Varner Hotel for three quarters of a century, many old and valuable books, flail on which Indians beat their corn piece of the Charter Oak, and other highly prized relics are to be seen in the collection.
