- Ringing Massive Bell in Church Tower
Paul Cardall explores the historic downtown Presbyterian Church with The Contributor Executive Director Cathy Jennings and Co-Founder Tom Mills.
The church is one of the largest and best preserved examples of Egyptian Revival architecture in the United States.
Completed in 1851, the church was used as a hospital by the Union army during the Civil War; beds filled the sanctuary and ground floor.
The building underwent extensive remodeling after 1865. Adelicia Acklen, the mistress of Belmont, donated the 4,000 pound bell which served as the city’s fire alarm from 1874 to 1897.
In 1882, the interior was painted with colorful, symbolic designs and perspective painting creating the impression of an Egyptian temple. The winged globe, repeated throughout the church, is the symbol for the Egyptian sun god Amun-Ra and signifies eternity. Original box pews were also removed during this time, and the present curved walnut benches installed; the stained glass windows were added in 1887.
The Contributor headquarters are in the Church. They helps Nashville homeless neighbors establish their own micro-businesses and work their way into housing through selling an award winning street paper. Vendors earn immediate income, establish meaningful relationships, regain their dignity, and become Contributors to the community.

That's actually a Meneely Bell. The Printing can easily mistaken for Mekeenly, As I had the same problem when trying to read the print on the bell. I'm in Dalton, PA and There's a Meneely Bell right next to my grandfather. Also there's another one up at the Waverly Community Church that's from 1871, And The Community House Bell is Sometime from the 1930s. Here's the video links to the Bells Local to me:

Wow, definitely! Thank you!
What a great story and message. I bet this video took a "toll" on you. lol
Lol, thank you Seth!
Very different way on how to ring it compared to English change ringing. In English change ringing, the bell goes full circle and methods like Stedman, Grandsire, etc. But good video though.
That is so interesting, thank you!
@@cardall No worries.
@@cardall if you want to know more about English change ringing. Here's a link to a wikipedia page en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_ringing
I have 2 big church bells on my lawn.
It must be hard to sleep in.
@@cardall They stay silent but special times I ring them. They are cast steel bells.
Buy. A. Paper. 😊
