Seeking the public’s help: Emergency: Historic document in metal container lost: One-thousand-dollar reward offered

by Sir Knight Tom Loughlin Jr

The Knights Templar is seeking the community’s help in locating a lost object with great sentimental value. 

Utica Commandery’s 200th anniversary weekend event was a great success but in transporting some of the displayed historical items, one was lost roadside. A one-thousand-dollar  reward is offered for its recovery. 

The lost item is of little cash value outside our organization but provide an irreplaceable link to our group’s past… thus the big reward.
