Grandmother's Clock. |
Comes To The Gilberts |
By Charlie
“My. grandfather's clock was too |
i large for the shelf.— |
So it stood ninety years on the
. floor; !
It ‘was taller by half than the old |
, man himself,
Though it weighed not a penny-
| weight more,
It was bought on the morn of
the day that he was born, |
And was always his treasure and |
pride;
But it stopped short—mnever
, go again—
When the old man died.”

That is not exactly the story, but | <s
“a phone call came to Ruth from |@
Wyalusingz, asking: if ‘she would like | 8
and | §
her great-grandfather’s clock
‘ when could we get it. She said “Yes”
and 1 said
Mrs. Dave Hillis of Wyalusing, was
. promised the great clock if she
{ would get her grandmother a dip-
| later when the promise was
used to see and admire it but nev-
er breathed that she ever wanted |i
it. When = Mrs. Hillis's daughter |
| Grace died a few weeks ago it was B
necessary for her sister to dispose |
of the things and sell the
| call,
The clock goes back to sometime
| around 1800. It hasn't yun for years |
EB! but I see nc reason why it couldn't. |
The works are wooden in good con- |

dition, Two weights operate the time |

| wooden works. We are delighted to §
have this clock. {
Problem! Our ceilings are 6 feet |
T inches. The clock is 7 feet 2 inches. |
Anybody know how to build a
tower on a house? We don’t want
to cut off either its feet or its head

respect the age and beauty of this
ancestral treasure.
