Joker

Could the old name for a chest be Lowboy?

2) Coffer?

Scryne- wooden box?

How many letters for the first one please? If you put the number(7) or numbers in brackets(6,6) it makes it easier for us to work out. Everyone buys different papers, too. Regards, Simon

simon scyrne correct however only ref is from a spenser quote. would love a dictionary definition. on remote hol. no ref books available. thanks

Hi Fran,
My Chambers gives it as an alternative spelling of Scrine - obsolete - a box or chest in which written records are kept. From the Old French Escrin and Latin Scrinium, a chest. The word Shrine is also derived from the same source.

Hope you're having a good holiday!

thanks bullfrog. have a nice day.
