<P>Thanks to all for their help with this, on and off list. Steve Ivin
<BR>points out that we have already discussed the sizes of the Westminster
<BR>quarters, on April 22 2002 - David Cawley gave the sizes then. I hope
<BR>David and George will forgive me for pointing out some discrepancies in
<BR>the data supplied, as follows:<BR><BR>Great Bede: DLC 6' 5 1/2", GAD 6'
10 1/2"<BR>Westminster Q2: DLC 2002 4' 0", DLC 2008 3' 8
1/16".<BR><BR>Perhaps these bells are not round! :-)<BR><BR>Also, regarding
Alan's weight for the Wanamaker bell, 310-1-23 must be <BR>the correct
reading as 28lbs = 1qtr. I have seen the figure of 310-1-28 <BR>in more than
one place, it is a common mis-reading. For clarity, I <BR>assume this is the
weight of the 1923 bell which no longer exists.<BR><BR>Bill
