CAISTOR - A treble and second bell, cast by Mr Harrison, of Barton, will shortly be added to the three fine old bells now in the tower of Caistor church. They are bequeathed in the will of the late Martin Mundy, Gent. of that place, and have been promptly provided by the Trustees, but from the very dangerous state of the old bell frame, they have not been at present admitted to the tower. Mr Harrison's survey has been taken, and new materials are found indisposable. The churchwardens have obtained the sanction of the parishioners for a rate to meet the expense. Sir Cullen Eardley Smith, The Hon C A W Pelham, Sir William Ingilby, and the three Trustees of Mr Mundy's property have given donations of £5 each, and the Vicar of Caistor £3 towards the charge.
