**Swanson Jubilee Medal-1887**

[Chris G.]

Hi Gareth

If you ever decided to sell the medal or donate it somewhere, say to the Swanson family, might that be its swan song?

Cheers

Chris

Swan song - nice one chris

I have told the family that they will be the first to know if I decide to part with it.

Ironically I did have it listed on ebay, then i started looking into the name, and realised it's

significance.

Hi Gareth,

I don't know if you still post here, but I was wondering about the book your father wrote. You said it was a book about death. What was the title if I might ask.

Hi Rob,

I'd love to let you know about the book, and will be happy to once I am no longer the owner of this 'hot potato' that is the Swanson Medal.

I am certain your intentions are 100% honorable, however, ever since going public with this find, I have had a plethora of people attempting to find out who I am and where I live (some with very sinister tactics I might add)

So I hope you will forgive my secrecy in not answering your question, it's a sad state of affairs really.

All the best

Gareth

Hi Gareth

Sorry to hear you have been the subject of harassment by certain parties since it became public that you have the medal. Good luck, my friend.

Best regards

Chris

Sorry to hear that Gareth

I don't understand the motive for such behaviour

If you get any obviously untoward approaches I would name and shame them

Are you sure they are not mistaking you for Ripperologist editor Gareth Williams / Sam Flynn?

[Scott Nelson]

Oh just give it to me. Problem solved. I'm the only one who ever interpreted Swanson correctly anyway.

[Monty]

Im curious

Y'all know my interest....


With the recent announcement of the sale of Swansons stuff, has anything happened with regards this medal?

To me that would be the one item Id be interested in.

Did we ever confirm whether this was THE Donald SWANSON's medal or just someone with the same name?
