DEATH Bella story is told of the
casting of the bell for the church of st.
Magdalen, Breslau. When the metal was
ready to pour into the mould, the chief
founder went to dinner, and forbade his
apprentice, under penalty of death, not to
touch the vent by which the metal was
conveyed. The youth, curious to see the
operation, disobeyed orders, and the whole
of the metal went into the mould, and the
enraged master. returning from his meal,
slew him on the spot. On breaking open
the mould he found he had been too hasty,
for the bell was cast as perfectly as posi-
BILE. When it was hung in its place the
master had been sentenced to death by
the sword, for the murder of his ap-
prentice, and he entreated the authorities
that he might be allowed to hear it rung
once before he died. His petition was
granted, and the bell has since been rung
at every clecutiOn.
