[Bell Historians] The demise of Mallaby

[Neil Skelton]

Don't know but I do have a handbell (damaged) with J.F.Mallaby, Barnby Don
on the leather handle. There are no distinguishing marks on the bell itself
other than the number (16). The note is in four places on the leather cap.

Bill Butler suggests that Mallaby obtained his handbells from Shaw or
Warner.

Neil.
