One Of the most interesting of bells

ringing has more significance than the
sound of most bells. for 1t is rung

the most serious are not only entered
there. but are cried aloud by an of.

When after weeks disappearance

upon her are legally considered dead.
When n ship is posted the old Lutine
bell is tolled once. In the very unusu-
