Curfew Rings at Lambeth.
London. —The curfew bell of Lam beth Palace is probably the last of London’s curfew bells. It still hangs in the belfry of the Lollards Tower, which is one of the oldest parts of the famous palace. The tower itself was built in the time of Archbishop Chicele, about 1415. The belfry is covered with galena, which contains a large percentage of pure silver.
