> There is an article in today's Times about Teresa Tormey, the Office
Manager
> at Taylor's. She is pictured in front of 4 bells with chalk marks
> indicating that they are from Orton, (the 8 in Cumbria, I assume). Three
> bells have the numbers 759 (number of bell obscured, but it is a smaller
> bell than the other 2), 939 (the 6th) and 836 (the 5th), respectively.
Each
> number is preceded by an O with a diagonal line through it, a charactor in
> some Scandinavian languages, I think. The large bell behind the other 3
has
> its chalk marks away from the camera. What do the numbers mean?
