Found by Karen Prytula in Quebec, Canada.
This example is not in my possession.
Karen states:- The forest is near Lake Dumont, Quebec. This area was worked by lumbermen anytime between 1840 and early 1900s. Close to the pile of bricks were the remnants of a big furnace. We are not sure what the furnace was for … We think it was for steam to run a sawmill.
Scotland Gartcraig (Usually the mark is Gartcraig Scotland). It was found alongside, Gartcraig Scotland Gaskil.
