	abstract = {<p>The discovery, excavation, and analysis of a human skeleton, a nearly complete set of clothing, and other cultural remains from a burial at L\&$\#$39;Anse au Loup, Labrador, in 1987, provide an example of co-ordinated investigation by an osteologist and a conservator. Study of the skeleton and preserved hair indicate the remains to be those of a young adult black male. Loss of an arm may have contributed to his death. Conservation treatment and analysis of the clothing suggest a costume dating to the early nineteenth century. Initials scratched into an associated pocket knife handle and shoe sole provide a clue to identity. Together the work of the osteologist and conservator reveal \&$\#$39;WH\&$\#$39; to have been a young black sailor working and dying on the Strait of Belle Isle in the early part of the nineteenth century.</p>},
