History enthusiasts in a small Minnesota community outside of Minneapolis gathered with press to open the 1920s-era box buried under an unassuming cornerstone.
Principal Kath pulled out an Army roster from 1905, a newspaper, an official finance committee report from 1920, a book with a constitution and bylaws, another newspaper and lots of dust as he announced each item to the people in the room.
The press was told that in the paperwork was a roster of all of the items in the box, which contained financial statements and coins, among other items.
What’s up with the focus on finances? Now I want to know the contents of the financial committee report and financial statements. I’m guessing one probably can’t get a digital copy.

Hopefully they’ll make digital copies at some point, though I doubt I’ll remember to check back. We need a RemindMe bot/feature on Lemmy
