Steeple Jack Removes Copper Ball From Court House Flagstaff
A. H. Winders of Newcastle climbed the town hall flagpole to remove a 30 inch copper ball weighing 27 pounds. The ball, containing papers from 1929, spent 36 years atop the tower before being lowered for tower repairs. The ball and its contents were handed to county officials and will be stored or reinstalled with the flagstaff repair.
