History
This was a gift given to my grandfather sometime in the 1910's. He saved a child's life that had fallen in Florida shark-infested waters as he was working on a hotel's boat during their day trips. The child's mother (from NY) took this off and gave this to him as a thank you - she said it was all she had with her and insisted he accept her gift. My grandfather left it to me. That is all the history I am aware of.
