Hello Andrew,<br>
<br>
Thank you for all your help to date.<br>
<br>
The inscription on the treble refers to the 'anonymous' donor, Fr.
Harker. Unfortunately I could not see this inscription last Friday
when we got to visit the tower. Attempting to obtain photographs was
also difficult, as they are in a steel I beam cage supported above the
large concrete beams and getting up to them would have been too
dangerous.<br>
<br>
There is one question which I would ask. Have you any idea who made
the chiming mechanism,. not the clavier but the barrel-style
automatic one. It is in need of repairs and we are attempting to find
out who made it, as no name exists on the unit that we can find.<br>
<br>
Michael Evans and his father have offered to come out from Revelstoke
and have a look. Hopefully they will be able to help. Meanwhile any
details of the original would be very gratefully received.<br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
<br>
Alan<br>
<br>
ps For anyone interested, I was able to record the notes of the bells
running down the scale (rounds).<br>

smaller, although one could get away with just replacing the two

heavier bells if one had a desire to hang them for full circle ringing.<o></o></span></font></p>
