"In the reading room of the Long Island Historical Society, Brooklyn, stands a pendulum clock in good running order, with this inscription: 'This Clock was Presented by John H. Baker Esq., of Brooklyn, in May, 1869, to the Long Island Historical Society. This Clock has been running for over 200 years. It was brought to this country from London in 1639 by the Rev. Obadiah Holmes, at whose death it passed to his oldest (living) son, Jonathan, then to Jonathan's son, Joseph, who left it to his son, John Holmes, who was the great grandfather of the donor.'"
