DESCRIPTION:
Silas Hoadley, Bristol, Conn., Circa 1830, 30-hour time/ strike/ alarm wood movement half column & splat shelf "Franklin" clock.
CONDITION:
refinished mahogany veneered case in very clean condition with some remains of the original stenciling on the splat. Center glass was most likely a mirror, but has been replaced with an eagle glass. Bottom tablet is original. When the current owner purchased the clock the original movement had been removed, but saved and replaced with an eight day spring movement. As a result, the original dial, which is pretty clean, has a plugged hole. The original 3-tr movement has been restored to the case. The alarm disc and verge to the alarm ratchet wheel are missing.
