Shore Fast Line Trolley Model by Tom Adams |
The original school bell was made by the
Meneely Foundry in West Troy NY. It is 20" in diameter, has a 27"
yoke and weighs 500 pounds. It is inscribed "Meneely Iron Works, Troy
NY 1873". In 1939 city council removed the cupola and gave the bell
to the Methodist Camp in Seaville, NJ. In 1989 the Historical Society traded
a comparable bell which they installed at the camp and brought the old Leedsville
Bell back home. |
