[Bell Historians] Warners demise

[Roderic Bickerton]

A fair guess, they were 1765 Lester and Pack, not nicknamed Fester and Crack
entirely without cause.
The two 1913 Warner bells are terrible, far worse than the others and are
candidates for recasting. A comparatively recent estimate for work condemned
them as being beyond hope of useful retuning, but recommended keeping the
others.
