Can anyone identify the object in the attached photographs?

It was donated to the Museum but use is not known.  It is a heavy  
whicker container, was once completely covered in heavy canvas, but a  
lot of the canvas has rotted away or been removed.  It has a wooden  
lid on top and a whicker panel which folds down in front, to form a  
sort of ledge with an opening at the base of the front.   On the back  
of the container are two short chains and it appears that the  
container might have been strung up on something, back of a horse- 
drawn buggy perhaps.
