In Mount Dora a 12 hours late chime from the First Presbyterian Church startled the town. The church air conditioner had cut power and reset the timer causing the bells to ring at 20 minutes past midnight. Rev. Kenneth Book learned of the mystery and confirmed the fix.
The Topic published in Mount Dora Florida lists editor Jim Waldron and editor Sandy Waldron with offices at 132 West Fifth Avenue and P O Box 197 Mount Dora. It notes a water emissions class material mention dated April 7 1916 and admission under a Florida act.
A reader voices worries about national safety and unity, asking if unilateral disarmament is possible and urging equal accountability under law. He reflects on wartime history, then recounts traveler notes from Singapore and Taiwan, describing population, land reform, industry, and culture.
Rev. Book said he received no complaints about the chimes at the late hour. He defended the timing as understandable given the circumstances.
