White Clay Pipes are from a cache recovered from under a large Oak tree that fell during a violent storm in Oak Hill, Volusia County, Florida in 1963. As the story goes, conferderate soldiers stationed at OaK Hill would fill these pipes with tobacco andOther trade them to the local indians for fresh meat and other goods. The pipes were made in England by Thomas Dorner, who's initials are (faintly) on the bowl, facing the stem. Overall length of these complete pipes is 5.5" and there are still traces of the original tobacco in the bowls. Circa 1861-1865."

Note the one of the pipes with the strong TD initials on the bowls sided is 6.625" and the other one is 5.5". I am assuming there were more than 2 pipes in the cache and that the document shows a different pipe that was from the same cache.
