[Bell Historians] Trebles on higher numbers

[David Bryant]

"And very little room around them as they are boxed in, as we found out when we replaced the treble clapper. Fag paper clearance of the clapper flight! Even with the extended flight on, the clapper doesn't hit the bell very hard and took an age to bed in and regain the volume that the first long flighted clapper had (if yet)"

What happened to the first long-flighted clapper? Not heavy enough, or did it break?
