  2. A Clock
    My great-grand -father had this old clock. It is about ninty years old. It was a great time keeper; it had to be wound once a month. He had a little square cut in the wall beside the fire for holding his clock. It is in the wall yet. We have not got that clock now. My grand father gave it to a man called Mr Daly to fix + he forgot to get it back.
