That church clock happened in 1900; from a reverse-ish Lawrence view four years ago -

Mr French was there also - Before clock - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320925 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000326970 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000326971 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000040292 After clock - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000321872 - see slightly more ivy on the Terminus Hotel than today's photo. Which implies this is before the last Lawrence one, and before 1915, at least. Or is it at most?

In 1871 on 1 July representatives from the London Missionary Society arrived on Erub Island (Darnley Island) accompanied by South Sea Islander evangelists and teachers. Clan Elder and Warrior, Dabad greeted them on their arrival. Ready to defend his land and people Dabad walked to the water’s edge when the Rev Samuel McFarlane dropped to his knees and presented The Bible to Dabad. Dabad accepted the gift, interpreted as the ‘Light’, introducing Christianity to the Torres Strait Islands. The people of the Torres Strait Islands adopted the Christian rituals and ceremonies and continued to uphold their connection to the land, sea and sky, practicing their traditional customs, and cultural identity referred to as ‘Ailan Kastom.’ Each year on 1 July, ‘The Coming of the Light’ or ‘Keriba Lagaw Buiya’ in traditional language is a day of celebration, performance, oral tradition and reverence.
