One striking point of resemblance between
the ..slave bell' and the liberty bell is the
fact that each has a fissure in :he side. Con-
corning the fissure in the slave bell pretty
legend is related. The bell stood in the CEN
tire of the plantation and was pealed to sum
mon the force of slaves to and from their
work. Early in the morning its changing
reused the tenants of the quarters to their
daily tasks, and at eventide its silvery notes
were borne on the soft breezes to the most
distant corners of the great plantation. At
the sound of its evening peal the army of
blacks, worn with their days labor. would
come troopin9 back to the rows of cabins that
formed the quarters. A right welcome sound
it was to those dusky toilers, and they
learned to love the bell and to repeat tales of
its wondrous purity of tone and far-reachng
sound 1t is tradition cherished by these
former slaves, who daily obeyed the bells
behest, that on that morning when Lincoln
proclaimed emancipation and freedom for all,
the bell fell from its lofty pedestal and rent
that fssure in its side which now silences it,
Its power gone, with none to obey its behests,
the bell chose perpetual silence to impotent
pealing, and now is but a mute memorial of
a bygone power.-Ner Orleans Times DEM
