[Bell Historians] Vancouver

[Alan Ellis]

Hello George,

What does your crystal ball tell you about the bells of Vancouver and 
environs?

We know of Holy Rosary Cathedral, of course, and the Taylor 42 cwt. 8 at 
St. James Granville (hung dead unfortunately).  Also the 8 tubular bells 
in St. Helen Surrey.  There is another chime in one of the two churches 
on Burrard Street but I know nothing of them.  We also know of the 
former 25 cwt. Mears 8 at Holy Trinity Pro-Cathedral, New Westminster, 
now only the old 3rd remaining.

Any more information per chance?

Many thanks in advance.

Best wishes

Alan Ellis
