A aoup tureen was display cd that had crossed the con tinent In covered wagon In the year 1845, when Mrs. Schmlnck's mother comes to Oregon. The ' history of this 'huge tureen can be traced back to the year 1838, and undoubtedly has a history be fore that time, which is now untraceable. A set of plates that be lonited to Mrs. Schmlnck's mother, and the water pitcher thai stood on the judge's stand in the old Lake county courthouse were also shown to the group. Around twenty quilts ot different patterns were dls- dlnynd. Theno quilts had been nude by Mrs. Schmlnck, her mother, and mnther-ln-law. Many of the patterns were tsken from old quilt patterns and were much larger than our present day quilts. The most outstanding quilt of this assemblage was one of an original pansy design cre ated by Mrs. Schmlnck. One of the oldest pieces in the museum is a pewter tea pot which belonged to a New England family by the name of Chase in the year 1791. The museum also contains the original by-laws of the Mt. Pleasant church of Ore gon City, the first Baptist church established in Oregon. The Schmlnck museum was started in 1838 by Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Schmlnck. The Qnuseum originated from the fact that many people would stop at the Schmlnck home to see their many curios and old pieces, many of which hud belonged to their parents and ancestors and which the Schminck'a had. carefully pre served. Tho showing of these articles often times necessi tated much packing and un packing to put them on dis play, so the Idea was formu lated to have them on display in their Urge basement. The museum soon won wide-spread interest and friends and visitors began contributing articles to- the collection, so that today the museum would be a definite credit to a community much larger than Lake county. Everything in the 'museum is cataloged. Q Aside from the many arti cles and pieces on display there are several books full ; of data and clippings which tho Schmlnck's have gath ; crcd. They are working to ! wards the end of gathering : as much authentic Informa ', lion as posslblo covcslng the ' articles in the museum, Lake i county, and tho settling of ' tho Oregon country. Sometime in the future the museum will go to the ; DuiiRhtcrs of the American . tlni.nhitinn b,,H will iaV in ' Lakcvlcw in the Schmlnck homo. . i MRS. FOSTER I GUEST OF HONOR !
