One day, one of the brothers died and suddenly the old clock started losing time. This was uncommon, since in those days clocks were generally not noted for their accuracy. One unusual characteristic on the old clock was that it kept very good time. In the lobby stood a floor clock, as they were called back in those days, that had been there for many years.
The George hotel was managed by two bachelor brothers named Jenkins also from England. Over 100 years ago in Piercebridge, North Yorkshire, England, there was a quaint country lodge known as the George Hotel.
