he wanted to insure control after his death
fiction
edward w pritchard
He wanted to insure control even after his death so the millionaire stipulated in his will that all the clocks he donated and built must keep time perfectly simultaneously for a ninety day period after his death for the institution to receive the balance of his fortune,
Rather than hire engineers to work on the clocks the decision makers at the institution hired lawyers to attack the terms of the bequest.
