  Given that G & J had a press call for the bell on 6th December, the 
  date you give must have been the day that they completed the tuning. 
  They didn't hang about after the press call, because the bell was ready 
  for hauling up the tower in Philadelphia on 23rd December!

  So which was the bell dated 1923 that you referred to in your earlier 
  posting Alan? Presumably another large one.
