<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Re the article in this week's RW about the bell at
Singleton which has the same inscription as the 9th at Carlisle apart from a
spelling mistake, surely the explanation must be that the bell was a reject and
was sold off as a stock bell - presumably either because of the error in the
inscription or because it came out flat. No doubt Mr Higson will be able to
provide the definitive answer...</FONT></DIV>
