Corsage
Interpretative Labels
Postal Savings Stamps, such as the ones here, were issued by the US government in an effort to raise money for World War II. The stamps were a cheaper alternative to larger denomination war bonds, rather than stamps used to pay postage on mail. Once enough stamps had been collected by a person, they could exchange them for a war bond of equivalent value. This corsage not only represents a patriotic spirit on the part of the wearer, it also visible shows a tangible 80-cent donation to the war effort.

Context
Worn by Clinton Catto during his service in WWII.

From the finding aid for documents in the Vermont Historical Society Library:

Clinton Erwin Catto was born in Barre, Vermont, on December 18, 1911, the third child
of Catherine Pratt Catto and William E. Catto (1865-1918), both natives of Aberdeen, Scotland.
Clinton’s father was a granite worker who died at age 50 of silicosis; his mother took in boarders
to support herself.
Mr. Catto worked for the Granite Mutual Insurance Co., of Barre as an inspector and
underwriter for six years before enlisting in the U.S. Army on January 31, 1944, at age 32. He
served in the 3256th Signal Service Company as a Clerk Typist with the rank of Sergeant. He was
discharged on January 12, 1946.
After the war, Mr. Catto returned to work at Granite Mutual and eventually became its
president. He retired as president in 1987 but continued to serve as chairman of the board until
1994. He also served as a director of the Champlain Casualty Company of Vermont and was its
first president, serving from 1987 until 1990.
Clinton E. Catto married Christyne Johnson on September 18, 1933. They had three
daughters and one son. Mr. Catto died on October 23, 1995.

Fife and Case, circa 1860 Wood and Brass Estate of Elizabeth Nelson True Blake Walter from Burke was a musician. Like many twenty-year-olds he eagerly did his duty when called to service. He enlisted with Company E, Vermont 15th Regiment with some of his friends. He was a fifer. He mustered in at Brattleboro on October 22, 1862 and the regiment was soon shipped off to Washington as part of the Second Vermont Brigade. Camp life was unhealthy and many Vermonters came down with malaria. Walter died in camp on January 2, 1863 from disease. His family always claimed that he died from homesickness.

Fixed-pitch Propeller
Interpretative Labels
Propeller Blade, ca. 1947 USA Gift of Norma Katz and Barbara Estey, 2017.21 On June 14, 1947, a B-29A Superfortress bomber took off from Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona for a navigational training mission to the east coast. Bad weather forced the crew to divert from their originally planned destination of Andrews Field in Washington, DC to Hanscom Air Force Base in Bedford, Massachusetts. The weather grew worse, and in the darkness, the crew overshot Hanscom and ended up in Vermont. Shortly before midnight, the crew attempted to contact Boston but reached Manchester, New Hampshire instead, and told the operator who responded that they did not need assistance. At 12:14 am, residents fo the village of Perkinsville in Weathersfield heard a loud aircraft flying low overhead, and then heard an explosion as the aircraft impacted with the south face of Hawks Mountain. Residents responded immediately, but there were no survivors, and most the of the plane was destroyed in the crash. It remains the deadliest crash in Vermont aviation history, with twelve fatalities. The Army salvaged all weapons, and local residents took some of the debris. This propeller was carried down the mountain and kept in a local barn for nearly sixty years before the owner donated it to the Vermont Historical Society.

This flag was issued in order to replace a similar flag that was lost in Shenandoah Valley when the baggage train was burnt. In late July, the new standard, "of the same material and design as the original" reached the camp of the 1st Vermont Cavalry. The enlistments of many of the original 1st Vermont Cavalry members expired, and they headed back to Vermont, taking the colors with them. In Burlington the returning troopers were received with great fanfare and on November 18, 1864 were officially mustered out of service. The next day the returned officers gathered together to decide what battle names were to be inscribed on the regiment's colors.

Geiger Counter
Interpretative Labels
Geiger Counter, 1957 Chatham Electronics Metal, rubber, plastic Given in Memory of Dr. O.S. Peterson, Jr., 2004.35.1ab A Geiger counter, named after scientist Hans Geiger, is a device used to detect and measure radiation. The unit consists of two parts: a probe and the body, which has a measurement window as well as the Geiger-Muller tube, which actually registers the radiation. Geiger counters are inexpensive, easy to use, and widely available pieces of technology. The world entered the atomic age after the US bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and for several decades the threat of a potential nuclear war gripped both the public and the American government. National civil defense programs produced short films, radio ads, pamphlets, posters, and other educational programs designed to educate citizens about how to act after a nuclear attack. Those decades of preparation, worry, and international diplomatic maneuvering are today known as the Cold War. The Geiger counter in the collection of the Vermont Historical Society was used by Dr. Oscar S. Peterson, Jr. in his role as radiological officer for the State Civil Defense Agency. (The “CD” symbol on the side of the unit stands for Civil Defense.) It formed part of his personal kit, intended to detect and investigate any signs of nuclear fallout. The Cold War was a period during which Vermonters had a complicated relationship with innovation and technology. They had to integrate both the threat of nuclear war and the fast-paced advances of modern society in their worldviews simultaneously. Few things illustrate this tension quite like a Geiger counter, which was meant to be used in a disaster scenario – but could guide the way to safety.

The printing on the top of the case reads, "FCDA / ITEM NO. / CD V-700 / MODEL NO. 3 / SERIAL NO. / 667 / MFRD. FOR / FCDA BY / CHATHAM / ELECTRONICS / LIVINGSTON / NEW JERSEY". There are two black plastic knobs and a yellow plastic plug on the top of the case. A U-shaped bar extends from the case to act a both a handle and a holster for a silver-toned tube, connected to the case by a rubber-encased cord, and capped on either end with rubber. The counter is accompanied by a 15-page manual entitled "Radiological Survey Meter / FCDA ITEM NO. CD V-700" printed in black and white on glossy paper.

Worn by Clinton E. Catto of Barre, Vermont, during World War II

From the finding aid for documents in the Vermont Historical Society Library:

Clinton Erwin Catto was born in Barre, Vermont, on December 18, 1911, the third child
of Catherine Pratt Catto and William E. Catto (1865-1918), both natives of Aberdeen, Scotland.
Clinton’s father was a granite worker who died at age 50 of silicosis; his mother took in boarders
to support herself.
Mr. Catto worked for the Granite Mutual Insurance Co., of Barre as an inspector and
underwriter for six years before enlisting in the U.S. Army on January 31, 1944, at age 32. He
served in the 3256th Signal Service Company as a Clerk Typist with the rank of Sergeant. He was
discharged on January 12, 1946.
After the war, Mr. Catto returned to work at Granite Mutual and eventually became its
president. He retired as president in 1987 but continued to serve as chairman of the board until
1994. He also served as a director of the Champlain Casualty Company of Vermont and was its
first president, serving from 1987 until 1990.
Clinton E. Catto married Christyne Johnson on September 18, 1933. They had three
daughters and one son. Mr. Catto died on October 23, 1995.

Saddlebag made of black and brown tanned leather with iron buckles. The interior is lined in canvas. When laying flat, the saddlebag is hourglass shaped. There is a hole in the middle of the hourglass for hanging over a stud attached to the saddle. Two long straps attached at the bottom of the bags would attach to saddle, possibly at the girth. Two short leather pieces at the top of the bags would slip under staples on the saddle. One of these has become detached from bag.

Black leather is on the outward facing side, and brown leather on the side that faced the horse. The buckles appear to have originally had leather stitched over them. Some of this leather remains on the buckles of the long straps, but just the bare remnants remain on the buckles that close the bags.

Sword, 1857 Ames Manufacturing Company Chicopee, MA Steel, gold, mother of pearl Gift of Philip Sawyer, 1933.3.3ab Horace Bucklin Sawyer (1797-1860) received a commission as a midshipman in the United States Navy in June 1812 at age 15, and served on the crew of the USS Eagle in naval operations on Lake Champlain during the War of 1812. He was captured and held prisoner by the British for six months, and when released, reported back for duty. Assigned to the USS Constitution in December 1814, he served onboard for her famous battle with HMS Cyane and HMS Levant in February 1815. He stayed in the Navy after the war, progressing to the rank of captain in 1855, but suffered from near-total deafness apparently caused by injuries he had received during the capture of the USS Eagle. In 1856, the state of Vermont presented him with this sword in honor of his long service and in particular recognition of his participation in the USS Constitution's service.

This sword was worn only as part of a dress uniform. Peck received the right to wear the sword when he received his commission as a 2nd lieutenant for his participation in Civilian Military Training Camp (CMTC). These camps were authorized by the National Defense Act of 1920 as an extra measure in preparing for the nation's military readiness. The camps provided an introduction to military training for young men of high school or college age to prepare them for the Reserve of National Guard duty. Peck spent a month each of four summers in addition to other preparations including correspondence courses as part of the CMTC program. The first summer camp was near Boston, and the succeeding three summers were at Fort Ethan Allen in Vermont. Upon completion, Peck was commissioned a 2nd lieutenant. Peck was called to active service while still in undergraduate school at Notre Dame. This sword would have been attached to a Sam Browne belt, a wide belt, usually leather, which is supported by a strap going diagonally over the right shoulder. It is most often seen as part of military or police uniforms.

Interpretative Labels
Western Union Radio Telegraph Signal Set, c. 1945 Used by William Vroman Mason (1906-1989) Waterbury, VT Paper, metal, fabric Gift of Brian Lindner, #2020.24.5a-j The Civil Air Patrol (CAP) is the official volunteer auxiliary of the United States Air Force. The Vermont "Wing" of CAP consists of a headquarters in South Burlington and squadrons located throughout the state. The Vermont Wing has single engine aircraft, vehicles, radios, direction finding, and various equipment, along with pilots, senior members, and cadets who are ready to serve Vermont with various CAP missions. William Vroman Mason was the production manager at Waterbury’s Derby & Ball plant, supervising their manufacture of items such as scythes, baseball bats, and both snow and water skis. He became Vermont Wing Commander of the Civil Air Patrol from November 1942 to November 1947. He may have been the first Vermont Wing Commander as the CAP was established in November 1941. In his role as Wing Commander, he directed CAP efforts to rescue the surviving crew member of the October 1944 bomber crash on Camel’s Hump, saving the life of PFC James Wilson. Mason used this telegraph set to train new recruits to the CAP. Though technologically surpassed by radio and other new communications devices at the time, during World War II the telegraph was still a crucial tool because of its familiarity and reliability. Telegraphs work by connecting and interrupting an electrical circuit. With each interruption, the device generates a noise – usually a click or a beep – that operators interpret in code. Cadets in the CAP would have learned to use the telegraph itself as well as Morse code and its accompanying shorthand, as seen here in the training materials.

Context
Stolen by C. F. Branch from Jefferson Davis’ mansion in Richmond, Virginia. He wrote, “This is a unique relic of a strange past. As we entered the city (Richmond), I was directed to proceed at once to the capitol, arriving there and posting guards as directed. Curiosity led me to enter Jeff Davis's mansion just across the street. In a small room adjoining a parlor was a blue silk umbrella, which I at once "borrowed" and upon returning to the street I was set upon by dozens of officers who wanted to borrow my umbrella and in a few minutes this handle was all I had left of Jeff Davis's beautiful sunshade.”

Writing Case
Interpretative Labels
Writing Desk, 1857 Used by Rufus Kinsley (1831 – 1911) Boston, MA Wood, metal, leather Gift of Sumner E. Kinsley, #1992.30.2b Rufus Kinsley grew up in Fletcher and then moved to St. Albans to work as a printer for the St. Albans Messenger. He followed that trade to Boston around 1850, where he worked for a series of papers including the Massachusetts Life Boat and the Boston Evening Traveller. Kinsley was raised in a deeply Christian household by a father who was a staunch abolitionist. While in Boston he lived in an integrated neighborhood in the West End and attended the May Street African Methodist Episcopal Church. The May Street Church was well-known as a radical abolitionist institution, and its pastor, the Reverend Elijah Grissom, had himself escaped from slavery. Kinsley served as superintendent of the Sabbath School at the church, and when he stepped down from that position in 1857 the Church gave him this writing desk. In 1861, Kinsley enlisted in Company F of the 8th Vermont Regiment. Four of his brothers also enlisted in the Union Army. Kinsley took on a variety of tasks for the Army, including supervising a camp in Algiers, Louisiana that cared for formerly enslaved Black refugees. While there, he volunteered in the camp school, using this desk to teach reading and writing. In August 1863, Kinsley was appointed second lieutenant in a regiment of Black soldiers. (During the Civil War, most regiments with Black soldiers were assigned white officers.) Many of the men serving with Kinsley had been enslaved, and he again used his writing desk and took the time to teach what he later estimated to be hundreds to read and write. After the war, Kinsley returned to Vermont and married. He suffered from a series of illnesses that made his life as a farmer difficult, and it took him years to claim his Army pension.
