OLD LIBEBTY BELL.
Story of How it Proclaimed Liberty Through
ont the Land in 1776.

The bell that rang at the birth of
our nation, one of the most sacred
relics of our country, is here where we
may all look upon it, though We shall
never hear its clarion tones.
This great bell, weighing 1850
pounds, was cast by Pass & Stow,
Philadelphia, and around it near the
top were cast the prophetic words
from the book kofLeviticus, "Proclaim
liberty throughout all the land unto
all the inhabitants thereof" Early
in June, 1853, it was hung in the bel
fry of the state house in Philadelphia,
with no thought ofthe liberty it would
one day proclaim.
Let us look back over the hundred
and seventeen years that have passed
since this bell rang on that fourth oi
July, 1776, and gaze upon the picture
of the scene so vividly drawn by George
Lippard in his ''Annals of the Ameri
