To some the tolling bell peals the music of romance. It stirs the heart to adventure. It calls the mind to weddings and to ghosts. In this house of mystery, its echo made a brave girl, braver; a fearless boy bolder; made a schemer money-mad; caused joy to a "ghost," fear to a darkey, and set a whole town In - a turmoil. Its mellow chime makes a drama that will resound up and down the whole scale of your feel- i Ings. Its tale will ring clear to your heart and pull on your emotions like a bell rope.
