Fellow Shadow Watchers,
On Friday 26th October at Holland College on Prince Edward Island in Canada a
full-size re-production of a sundial made by Heath and Wing of London in 1773
will be inaugurated. This 17.4" diameter instrument was the last commercial
sundial to leave my workshop in 2011.
Inscribed "The gift of SAMUEL HOLLAND Esq. his MAJESTY's Surveyor
General of Lands for the Northern District of North
America to Dartmouth College New Hampshire"
By kind permission of Dartmouth College, the dial, in phosphor bronze, has been
accurately reproduced but re-delineated to read correctly at its new location.
The time of the inauguration has yet to be announced but will be published on
the SML as soon as I have been informed of it. The college authorities would
welcome the attendance of any dialists from NASS or BSS who might be nearby at
the time.
How I wish I could be there :-(
Tony Moss
