Obverse Content: Legend and Center: ELIE RENAUD 359 RUE CLARENCE OTTAWA |
From the Breton Catalogue of 1894: "Mr. Renaud set up as a wood merchant in 1879. He ordered 100 of these to be used, but when they were delivered to him he found that there was not the requisite number. Fearing therefore, that some of them may have got out and that they might be presented in payment for a load of wood, he never put any into use." |
