Epilogue

The blond youth pulled the old clock down from its' space on the shelf. "See, Henry, now that the clock is ours, we can look at it as much as we want."

The younger boy was a bit worried. "But Martin, I'm not sure that Mum would want us messing with it. After all, it was Grandfather Martin's clock."

Young Martin was not to be deterred. "Grandad Martin certainly is an old coot, isn't he? Sometimes I wonder how he and Grandmum ever had kids. But look here...it says, "To James Henry Ellingham...July 2026". That's when he gave it to Dad."

"And now it belongs to us," declared Henry. "And Dad said we had to take good care of it. Let's put it away."

Martin replied, "Ok, but it's so old. Let's make sure nothing ever happens to it. No matter how grumpy Grandpa seems he is always interesting."

The boys put the clock back into its normal spot, where it still kept perfect time.
