The new bell for the Methods
church came last week and was hun;
and can be heard daily. 1t weigh
nearly 800 pounds more than the oil
one, is mounted on good hangings
and is just what is needed. 1t is nc
as heavy as the bell in the Congre
gational church, and Is toned enoug
different so that they can be easil
distinguished apart. The publ
spirit which always characterizes thi
place, has been shown in the gene1
Gus contributions made for the pun
chase of the new bell. In our re
marks about the old bell, we ough
to have stated that it was bought an
presented to the church by Mrs. Han
ny Baxter, not Mr.. Baxter Anotb
er thing worthy of note, was the fac
that the old bell was rung forty-tw
successive years by John L. WOOD
man, Esq, who rarely missed a sir
gle ringing, and who never cheate
five minutes on his time. At preser
the new bell is being rung at 1
O'Clock IN. and 8 p. IN. The cost
the bell, less the price of the old be
remelted, is S175.
