Tuning figures are very roughly as follows (hum, prime, tierce, 
nominal):

1: 322 589 746 1254
2: 293 571 664 1059
3: 270 464 589 985
so that the three nominals are Eb + 12, C + 20, B - 5.

The spacing of the bells from treble to second to tenor is roughly 3 
semitones and 1 semitone. This is not a combination that occurs in a 
major diatonic scale. They are actually (tongue in cheek) 2, 3 and 4 
of a peal of 8 tuned to a harmonic minor scale.
