The 9th is 34-0-11.
I have heard the story of the 9th falling and killing two people
before, but it is untrue. What did happen is that when the bourdon was
being hoisted, the cable was twisted and as soon as the bell was
lifted off the ground, it went for a slow but rather long spin! The
cable therefore ended up very twisted indeed, and took some time to
rectify.
