Ghost Bells Moved.
London's ghost church bells have
been augmented. Tradition has it
that on certain occasions the bells
of the old church of St. Andrew-by
the-Wardrobe ring without human
aid. To these have just been added
three of the chimes of the village
of Avenbury, which also have a repu
tation of going on their own. Gabriel
Andrew, the largest of the three bells,
is reported to have tolled of its own
accord when the last two vicars of
Avenbury died. No one pulled the
rope, declare the parishoners, yet the
entire village heard the chime.
