maker and Bishop continues with great
interest. The house is crowded every
night and great interest is manifested at
each meeting and conviction seems to be
deep The ministers look forward 10
good results in the near future.-In the
parlor of Mrs. j. IL. Hulings, of this
place, stands probably the oldest clock in
the state. 1t is no doubt an heirloom of
no small value to some of the families of
Centre county, Pa. 1t is of the old grand
pa style, stands over eight feet high, with
the usual features of those tall clocks OF
many years ago. Its records show it to
be over a hundred and fifty years old,
and what is still more remarkable is that
IL always gives you correct time. When
its sweet toned gong is heard every hour
you know the time to second-probably
because 1t lived when George did. This
old timer came to Tucker county from
Center Hall, Centre county, Pa, and was
once the property of the Flemings, the
Curtius (ex-Governor of Penna.), of the
Smiths and later of the Murrays, one of
whom now lives at Center Hail. dear
