Team Knocked Down Clock Post-The
Baltimore San says that on Tuesday farm
team knocked over the iron post which for
many years held the clock in front of the Sun
Iron Building at the southeast corner of Balti-
more and South streets.
When the old building went down in the
flames of the great fire the iron post, with
portion of the clock, remained standing, re-
minder of the past. AS the clock was we'll
known landmark, Baltimoreans were glad to
see that the post was left in its old place after
the Abel Office building which was erected on
the old site, was completed. The face of the
clock was covered with tin, and the name of
the Abel Building was placed on it.. When
struck by the wagon the post fell with much
force to the sidewalk. Although several per-
sons were standing on the corner at the time,
no one was hurt. The weight of the post caus-
ed it to break in half when it struck the side
walk
The team that met with the mishap was that
of Mr. BENJAMIN T. Ridgey, whose farm is
near Warren, 9Th district. In passing the corner
the wagon slipped to the curb and a hub struck
the post Mr.. Ridgely, who is his own team
ster, drives a fine six-mule team and always
hauls big loads.
Since the mishap Mr.. Ridgely has written a
note to the SIN in which he said II greatly
regret that I was so unfortunate as to disturb
your old landmark, which l, among many,
was glad to see you left undisturbed after hav-
ing withstood the great fire. will cheerfully
make any atonement that may be able"
