[Bell Historians] Vancouver

[Alan Ellis]

Hello George,

Just returned from Whitehorse, Yukon.  Any bells on your list up there? 
  I noted two in the town.  One in the Old Log Church (Anglican, which 
looks like an old brass bell (rather than steel as is quite common) and 
I heard the one in the Catholic church at noon.

Best wishes

Alan
