Interesting Story of Christ Church's
Historic Bells.-There is bit of history con-
nected with the big bells which have hung in
the belfry of Christ Protestant Episcopal
Church, of this city, for nearly century, says
the Baltimore SWt. They have chimed out
anthems, grand and gay, upon holiday seasons,
tolled at funerals and summoned worshipers
and have been rung when flames threatened
destruction, until their brazen Threats have be-
come thin from much changing.
They have now been removed and will be re-
cast. Towson is connected with these historic
bells through Mr.. James Hull, an EnglishmaD,
grandfather of Mrs. Louisa M. Craumer, moth
CT of Cashier w Clarence Ornurncr, ofthe Tow
son National Bank. Mr.. Hull was the first
ringer of the bells.
When the bells were first hung the church
was on East Baltimore street, not far from
Mr.. Hulls home On their arrival from Eng
land no one knew how to hang them. Mr..
Hull, who had been an expert at the business
in his native country, offered his assistance.
After the bells had been put in place the sweet
and memory awakening notes Of Home,
Sweet Home' and "Days of Absence hoated
for the first time over the city, struck by the
hand of Mr.. Hull.
Mr.. Hull was afterward appointed bell-ringer
and sexton. Mrs. Craumer says she has heard
her mother frequently tell of how they climbed
to the belfry and rung the bells when she was
girl, and even after nightfall when going to
sound an alarm of fire she climbed up the lad
der leading to the tower and performed this
service after her candle had blown out.
