Why?[00:24.395]Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another,[00:31.403]but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired.[00:42.826]The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night[00:48.741]was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since.[01:04.002]One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start，[01:09.720]the clock was striking the hours![01:16.306]Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock,[01:22.031]but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped.[01:28.349]Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on.[01:41.522]In the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as Bill Wilkins, our local grocer.[02:08.680]'Whatever are you doing up here Bill?' asked the vicar in surprise.[02:21.917]'I'm trying to repair the bell,' answered Bill.[02:28.439]'I've been coming up here night after night for weeks now.[02:35.421]You see, I was hoping to give you a surprise.'[02:47.996]'You certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar.[02:55.402]'You've probably woken up everyone in the village as well.[03:01.653]Still, I'm glad the bell is working again.'[03:15.232]‘That's the trouble, vicar,' answered Bill.[03:21.306]'It's working all right, but I'm afraid that at one o'clock it will strike thirteen times and there's nothing I can do about it."[03:55.080]‘We'll get used to that, Bill,' said the vicar.[04:01.808]'Thirteen is not as good as one, but it's better than nothing.[04:10.212]Now let's go downstairs and have a cup of tear.'[04:40.018]Suture Music
