Abstract
Description
One of the most recent additions to the courtyard of St. Paul's Chapel is The Bell of Hope. The bell was donated to the church and New York City by the Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey and the Lord Mayor of the City of London, the Right Honorable Michael Oliver, on the first anniversary of 9/11. The bell was cast by the Whitechapel Foundry, the same company that cast the Liberty Bell.
The Bell of Hope is rung on occasions when the parish pays tribute to victims of terrorism. Following the tradition of the FDNY�s salute to fallen comrades, the chapel�s clergy tolls the bell in four sets of five rings. The bell has been rung following the London, Madrid, and Mumbai bombings, and for the Virginia Tech shooting victims, and on 9/11 anniversaries.
