taken by Bedford girl to trim dress

| John Jacob Mickey, soldier of the
Continental army, was one of those
detailed for the removal of the bells.
To- him the state house bell was in

son of Johann Jacob Mueckii (the Ger

vessel Hope" in the early part of
1888. On August 81, 1888. he took the
oath of allegiance to his adopted
country. He was farmer at White

the Revolution broke out.
At Bethlehem Mickley's wagon

The state house bell and the chimes
of Christ church were buried beneath

a consequence, the Continental troops
suffered unimaginable hardships for
lack of food in the six months from

June 10, ITS, when Lord Howe. relin-

than the first trip of the Lib
erty Bell from Philadelphia, writes
John A. Sheath, ex-state treasurer of
Pennsylvania, in the Philadelphia
Press. That trip was to Allentown a
year and two months after it became
the Liberty Bell, at the time when
Howe's army, victorious over the Con-
tinental forces at the battle of the
Brandywine, was advancing for the
capture Of the city.
When the bell left for the San
Francisco exposition last year it de-
parted with the God-speed Of the
whole undivided city. 1t was escort
ed to the train by the First city
troop and by the great assemblage
gathered for the Fourth of July exer-
cises on Independence square. 1t
passed through streets thronged with
generating people. On the train it
was under the escort of large body
delegated by the constituted munich
pal authorities. It's passage across
the continent was a triumpha1 prog
ress. A hundred cities along the
route poured out their citizens to do
it reverence as it passed and it was
received at the other rim of the con-
tinent in reverential awe by count
less multitude.
Contrast With First Trip.
That is how the Bell travels today.
it was very different in September,
l777. On that first trip to Allentown
it went, not in daylight, but in the
dead Of night Not with the music of
bands and escorted in honor by null
titudes, but in silence and under the
guard of only one man. 1t went not
in a special train but in creaking
old farm wagon loaded with manure,
the better to conceal it.
For at that time there were many
Tories in Philadelphia. These inelud-
ed families then counted among the
foremost citizens When the city was
evacuated by the Continentals. these
Tories came out of the obscurity in
which they had been prudently lying
and began preparing welcome for
Howe and his army. The following
winter was a time of rare festivity
