Louis Hast, 68, of 519 Rose Hill Ave, well known local clock hobbyist, die suddenly last night in Memorial Hospital where he underwent an emergency operation after being admitted earlier in the day. Born June 14, 1879, in Cumberland. Mr Hast was a son of the late Henry and Mary C. (Berg) Hast. He was educated in public schools here and as a young man worked in the J.N.O. Oliver grocery store and later in the P.H. Daughtry grocery store, located on the present site of the Library Trust Building. While working there as clerk, he became associated with W.L. Radcliffe, who was the secretary of the old Cumberland YMCA on Baltimore St. They went to Washington and established the Radliffe Chautauqua, well remember as an annual series of lectures, entertainment and music which made tours of the country. Mr Hast then booked the United States Marine Band on a tour to the Pacific Coast and back, accompanying it as travelling agent and Business manager. He retired in 1936. After his retirement, he turned to his hobby of clock collecting, repairing and construction. He had one of the best collections of all types of clocks in this area and at the last Western Maryland Hobby Show his exhibit and lectures on clocks attracted favorable comment. During the recent war, when it becam impossible to buy alarm clocks, Mr. hast made a tour of all towns in thsi area, buying old stocks of clocks, parts and mechanisms. Many local workers will attest to the fact that his ingenuity in clocks kept their old alarm clocks in operation. Mr. Hast never married. He made his home with a only surviving sister, Mrs C. Adela Askey, and was a member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church . The only other immediate survivor is a brother Merwin R. Hast, 537 Rose Hill Ave, former city clerk. The body is at Stein's Funeral home where services will be held at 3 o;clock tomorrow afternoon wht the Rev Dr. Hizxon T. Bowersox, pastor of St. Paul's Lutheran Church officiating. Interment will made later when weather conditions permit. Contributor: Rob and Debi Felten (46883097) • [email protected] ——
