An Old Bell.

Among the hundreds OF relies IN the
Washington headquarters at Newburg
is q historical, bell that for many years
called the old knickerbockers to wor
ship in the Lutheran church in this
city. The bell, which is SMALL. weigh
ing barely twenty-five pounds, * eX-
ceedingly sweet-toned. II was east at
Amsterdam i'm l1l6. Three years
later it was presented by Queen Anne
to the settlers of Newburg. As they
had no church edifice then it WAS lent
to the Lutheran church on Manhattan
island, where it hung till 1898, when
the Newburg pioneers built "a church
and removed the bell to it. II was he
first one ever hung in that region. Its
Later CAREER NILS One nf Nlclssllu le.- LII
process OF time its original owners died
or joined their brethren in the more
fertile valley OF the Genesee. English
people supplied their places. and the
bell then came into possession of the
Church OF England, which succeeded
the Lutheran as the state church OF
the former Dutch colony. But in 10
the Church OF England had fallen into
bad Odor in the colonies. and about
that time the bell WAS taken from it,
tower and hidden in a swamp, it il
said, to prevent its falling into the
hands OF the wings. After the peace OF
1888 it resumed duty in the church.
In 1T9s it was hung in the academy
and rang the village children o school.
and also did duty a. n court bell.
From 1884 to 1874 it was used as a
signal bell for the stables of one of the
city hotels, AMI in 1874 became the
property of IA lady residing in New
burg, vino in 1852 gave il to the trils-
