minute OF IL o'clock. and told the ex.
pert behind the counter to listen.

that she strikes thirteen instead Of

The customer looked as relieved as
II he'd just awakened from a bad

That's Just what I've always
thought ever since we've had the
clock he burst forth. I'VE always
felt sure 1t struck thirteen. But no
one else In the family ever spoke Of II.
