Notes Hi Lester, Thank you for the Autumn Giornale. The article on the millstone prompted me to send you a photo of the millstone and one of the cannons at the entrance of the Kokopo Museum. This photo was taken in July 2016 when Steve and I visited Kokopo and Port Breton to see the area. The museum is in poor condition in need of funds to maintain the exhibits and preserve the artifacts. Perhaps there is scope for a partnership between the New Italy Museum and the Kokopo Museum to jointly care for the Nouvelle France materials in situe rather than bringing them to NI. Kind regards, Mick Capelin (Perin)
