David Chatterton did have somne help from BMaine Moffat assisting with the assembly, some mînor rewiring and installing somne plexi- glass in fthe cdock tower. The dlock was donated to Township of Clarke in memory of Mary A. Harris and was installed in November of 1935. It was made in Enigland by a comipany known as Synichronomie. And further it was Frank Hope jones that invented the system min the late 1880s. The Town Hall dlock, the invention by an artisan of another era .100 years ago, through the ingenuity and determination of a present day tinkerer and optimist, provides Orono with the uniqueness of this Urne piece. Thank you David Chatterton.
