Rich Pearl Haul From Mussel on White River
Mrs Bertha Scott Bell collected mussels on the White River farm with Edward Bell three years after their marriage. She found one pearl the size of a shot and later forty one more, some fine enough to compare with a pen nib. In Newport the buyer valued twenty as nearly worthless slugs and the rest at lower weights, offering little for the collection.
