color:#1F497D'>As cast the limerick bell (No. 3744) was clearly for the Chicago
carillon. It was rejected for some reason, but it is interesting to note that
all frequencies were sharp of the requirements for Chicago, but only slightly
so. Perhaps it was felt that there was not enough metal in the bell to make all
the necessary cuts to get it in tune.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>In the event it was tuned down from a nominal of 605 Hz down
to 548 Hz (for Chicago it needed to be 580 Hz), losing about 6.5cwt in
the process. For the aficionado’s both bells have a diameter of 56”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

do not know in which Limerick building this bell is in but its weight is
31-1-19 in C# 274 dated 1931. It was originally destined for the Chicago
carillon No.60. May be the Limerick bell was a rushed order (as Cyril sometimes
does) or was inferior to be placed in the carillon but still useable.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
