<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Strangely, when compiling this I had assumed that
the 1889 work was also Gillett's; but Chris raises a query. The only Scots
founder at the time able to cast a set of bells would have been John C Wilson of
Glasgow. But then it also needs checking against the (several) English founders
at the time Gillett (& whoever in 1889, probably Co) amongst
them.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On George's "obvious question" it would be very
good to check out all these things, but as I said in my previous posting, they
were all destroyed in the 1948 fire.</FONT></DIV>
