Scituate Lighthouse Chelsea Clock

Designed exclusively for King Jewelers by the Chelsea Clock Co., this unique coastal scene depicts the historic Sciutate, Massachusetts lighthouse. During the War of 1812, Rebecca and Abigail Bates, teenage daughters of the light keeper, saw the British army rowing towards the shore, realizing there was no time to warn anyone, they grabbed their fife and drum and played very loudly. The Birtish thought the Scituate town militia was approaching and retreated. Thus was born the legend of Scituate's "Lighthouse Army of Two". The solid brass base and lid measure 2" in diameter.
