Scope and Contents

Letter from Joseph Heilner to Jesse Heilner, 1895-1915. The Bell travels to Chicago, Atlanta, Charleston, Boston, St. Louis and San Francisco, stopping at small towns along the way for thousands of passer bys to see.

The actual bell was toured throughout the United Sttes with the intention to show the Bell to people who presumably would never be able to visit Philadelphia. Dated July 14, 1915.
