l&TOW it came to pass, that in the 41 st _Ln year of the reign of Victoria the Queen that there was a certain city built upon the plains, and the people of this city were a very busy people and TIME was precious nnto them, even like gold and silver and precious stones; and it came to pass that the artificers who dividt d the time between the rising and setting of the sun, and of dividing the hours thereof, said—Heboid tl is people which is gathered here together, from all p rts of the earth and from among all nations ; behold ! they have gotten houses and la ds and cattle, and are filled with the good things of th 9 earth, let us the>efore lay up'n th« m burdens grievous to be borne and make them pay unto us portions of their possessions, that we too may speedily become rich; and it was so And the people groaned under their heavy burden—And behold, in the fullness of time a man appeared in their midst whose surname was R'JTLANU, a watchmaker, and he abode in the street which is called Colombo, And he cried unto the people and said, come unto me, I will deliver you and release your yoke from off your shoulners ; for behold, he cried, I am a worker in watches and clocks and in gold and silver and precious stones, and I will wo*k for you, take away your trouble, —and I will clean your watches and your clocks for five shillings each—ye shall no longer pay ten pieces of silver as heretofore but five. And he stood forth and c ied, yet again—lf you wiil give nnto mo but a small portion of what ye have given nnto others, behold then your wives and your daughters shall wear chains of gold around their necks, and hands of gold and of silver upon their arms, and rings upon their fingers and in their ears. And moreover he said, I will give unto you that which is desired of all men and which shall be of service to thee; and I will sell unto thee watches which no man can surpass for two pounds each. And it was so that the people flocked unto him, and did buy of him, for he dealt fairly with the people and sold unto them goods which no man could surpass. And lo ! he remaineth in the city unto this day. Now therefore, 0 ye people, ye sons and daughters of Christchurch, Hock unto him, and he will serve you well.
