  • Three wooden boxes, nailed shut, holding several pounds of dried beef jerky each
  • Six barrels of salted fish
  • Twenty bottles of rum and seventeen bottles of whiskey
  • Loose jars of honey and jam
  • Twenty four sacks containing oats, flour, turnips, raisins, carrots, and leeks
  • The carcass of a giant weasel
  • A battered wooden container holding old nails, pairs of scissors, a broken lantern, bits of thread, a rusty saw, and sixteen unmatched wax candles
  • A pile of six short swords, nine daggers, two hand axes, and a morning star
  • An iron cooking pot holding paint brushes and a miniature bird cage with the skeleton of a canary inside
  • Six hooded lanterns and seventeen flasks of oil
  • Thousands of sheets of paper, torn from books and placed in a pile; used for giant rat messenger's messages
