Kligorrian Branch of Entwostle
A branch that fell off a very famous tree on the banks of Lake Entwostle. The tree stood 100 ft tall and was 300 years old when it died.
Colin Kligorrian took the fallen branch and fashioned it into a measuring stick for his boat-building business. After the great drought of 1324 he gave up boats altogether, became a marble competition umpire, and the stick found its calling.
It has been used at every marble competition for the last 50+ years. Kligorrian's great, great, great grandson eventually sold it to a very distant relative of Mrs. Rosebank, which is how it came to Swedhump Elementary and into the hands of Prof. Plebinorrius McDermott the 3rd.
