Ohio Gift to Queen Symbol 130 Years of Peace

Ohio plans to send an hour glass to Queen Elizabeth II as a 150th birthday gift. The sand comes from the Great Lakes, symbolizing 130 years of peace between Canada and the United States. The piece, created by Elmore craftsman Chester Yancy with Neal C. Miller, features walnut mounting and a gold inscribed plate. Arrangements are handled by the Lucas County Sesquicentennial Commission and Gov. Lausche with potential wider state endorsement.
