Has anyone come across reference to horns being used for any purpose
underground?
I've seen three now in different parts of one particular mine at
Nenthead and wonder what they might have been used for.
All have been a bit worse for wear but none have had the tips present so
I wondered if they might have been used as a funnel to help load black
powder into holes?
I don't recall ever having seen them in illustrations of miners
equipment has anyone else ever found any or seen reference to their use?
