stood on opposite sides of the road, and the Baptist edifice was a
little farther down than the other. On Sunday morning both bells
were ringing. The Baptist bell was much larger, and followed
quickly on the soft peal of the Orthodox with a heavy brazen clang
which vibrated a good while. The people went flocking through the
street to the irregular jangle of the bells. It was a very hot
day, and the sun beat down heavily; parasols were bobbing over all
the ladies' heads. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
