In 1861 (at the age of 16) he began to study watch making and engraving under Louis Spaulding (formally with Waltham Watch Factory) in San Francisco, CA. He left California for St. Cloud, Minnesota 6 years later and founded his first jewelry business, A. F. Robertson - St. Cloud. The clock was purchased for this store, in the late 1860’s, and the front glass pane at the time read A. F. Robertson. In 1907 he moved to Harlowton, Montana where he commenced the Robertson Jewelry Firm, settling down there until is death. Of his 4 sons, 2 took on the task to run the store, William A. with the help of Ralph L (former mayor at Three Forks, MT). William changed the initials on the front glass from A. F. to W. A., which is how the clock reads today. The family took meticulous care of the clock as it sat protected on a custom pedestal made to safeguard the clock in the store and kept a log of the maintenance. This maintenance was continued and logged by William’s niece Betti when he passed in 1971, and then by Betti’s daughter (the current owner) up to the present day. The clock has been consigned by the family 27”W x 94”H x 12”D. Estimate $75,000 - 125,000.

The main group on top is derived from a painting “The Liberation of Chactas” by Pierre Jarome Lordon, which shows Atala to the left, wearing traditional clothing, giving her an exotic look and tagging her as the daughter of a Spaniard, with a feathered crown resembling her Indian status. She is untying her love Chactas, who is a Netchez Indian taken captive for sacrifice by another Indian tribe. On the right side of the clock is an Indian guard, shown sleeping against a wood pile on which the clock sits. The front of the cases platform is mounted with a relief plaque, related to a painting by Anne-Louis Girodet de Roussy Trioson titled “The Funeral of Atala”. It shows Chactas carrying Atala, followed by a hermit priest and led by a dog. The case has a very good gold dore finish and shows the finest detail. Complete with a round French bronze time and bell strike silk thread movement. The book takes place in “New Eden”, which is now called Louisiana. The two main characters are Atala and Chactas. Atala is the daughter of a Spaniard man and an Indian woman of strong Christian beliefs, she has ties to the chief of an Indian tribe. She has sworn to her mother that she will forever remain a virgin. Chactas is an Indian of a different tribe, the two tribes go to battle and Chactas is taken captive for a ceremonial sacrifice. Atala meets him while he is tied up, and falls in love with him; she comes by at night and frees him and they run away together. In the midst of the North American wilderness, they get caught in a terrible storm and they are rescued by a missionary and a hermit (who also is a village priest). They are brought to the village and begin life together; Chactas is greatly influenced by Christianity in the town and considers converting, which pleases Atala. Atala is torn between the promise she made to her mother to be a virgin and her feelings for Chactas, She decides to commit suicide with poison. When the priest’s grant Atala freedom from her promise, because it is unchristian like, it is too late. The remedies for the poison does not work and she dies. Chactas and the hermit (priest) bury Atala at sunset in an exotic landscape under an arched rock; and the story ends. 14”W x 16.5”H x 4.5”D. www.FontainesAuction.net Estimate $20,000 - 25,000.

The purchaser shall be liable to Fontaine Auction Gallery and the consigner for the total purchase price, including all premiums, charges, and expenses specified in the Term of Sales. Interest shall accure at the rate of 18% per annum commencing with the date of the auction. 4. Qualifying to Bid-New Buyers: If you are not known to us, you may be asked to furnish identification, a valid credit card number, and, possibly, credit references.

Collection of Property and Storage Charges: The purchaser will pay for and remove the purchased Property from the premises of Fontaine’s Auction Gallery within thirty (30) days of the sale.

Absentee Bids: We accept absentee bids by phone, by mail, in person, or by fax. Absentee bids are requested no later than 6:00 p.m. on the day before the auction. If you fax your absentee bids, please call us to confirm receipt. All absentee bidding is handled as though you are in attendance. We will buy all designated lots for you at the bidding increment just above where competition stops. Please check and comply with these increments. All unreserved bidding starts at 50% of the low estimate unless there are two or more competing absentee bids at a price higher than that. (For example, a lot estimated at $500–$750, with no reserve, will normally open at $250. If there are two absentee bids for $400 and $600, the lot must sell for $425, even if there is no further bidding from the phone, later absentee ballots, or from the live audience. In such a case, we will open the bidding at close to the low estimate.) “Plus” bids: Because of our structured bidding increments, it is more likely that several people will leave identical bids. Since an earlier bid wins in the event of a tie, a later bid with an added “plus” bid to the next increment would win the piece. All absentee bidder names and bids are held in strictest confidence, disclosed only in the event of a question after the sale. Absentee bidding is a convenience offered to our customers and, while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, Fontaine’s Auction Gallery is not liable or responsible for any errors or failure to do so. 8. Telephone Bids: Lines are available on a first-come, first-served basis – please reserve as soon as you are able. We must hear from you no later than 12 noon on the day before the auction. Determine the lots on which you most want to bid before reserving the lines. If you need condition reports, please request and review them prior to reserving phone lines. We will call you at one phone number ONLY during the auction. If you are unsure of where you or your agent will be during the sale, we

you leave absentee bids. All requests for overseas telephone lines must be accompanied by absentee bids, which will be executed on the buyer’s behalf, should there be any problems with telephone connections. Your phone number and lots will be confirmed the day before the auction. Please do not change your phone number after your phone lines have been confirmed; if you do, Fontaine’s Auction Gallery will not be responsible for any breakdown in communications. We strongly recommend land lines, as, to date, they are more reliable than cellular phones. One of the reasons people bid by phone is to monitor how much they’re spending. However, if you bid by phone, you must be willing to bid to the low estimate should the bidding go that far. There is no exception to this rule. You may, however, leave absentee bids for any amount. Bids are placed on the telephone at the discretion of Fontaine’s Auction Gallery, and at the caller’s risk. Telephone bidding is a convenience offered to our customers and, while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, Fontaine’s Auction Gallery is not liable or responsible for any errors or failure to do so. All telephone bidders hereby consent to their telephone conversations with Fontaine’s Auction Gallery being monitored and recorded. 9. Auctioneer’s Determination Final: A lot will be sold to the highest bidder as determined in the sole and exclusive judgment of the auctioneer. The auctioneer will also have the sole and exclusive power and authority to a) resolve any disputes between bidders, b) determine whether to pass or re-offer a lot for sale c) reject or challenge any bid or advance in the bidding, and d) otherwise regulate the bidding and its increments. 10. Estimates: The estimates provided in this Catalogue are our opinion of the price that a willing buyer would pay for the Property at auction, based, where possible, on prices paid for comparable items sold in the past.
