Blessing of the Bells by Christian Wood '16

Nashotah House's Great Bell 'Michael' has rung three times daily to call the community for morning, noonday and evening prayer since 1868, when it was first given as a memorial gift to The House by one Dr. Delafield, a friend of House professor, Dr. Azel Cole. Recently, Nashotah House received eight change-ringing bells cast in 1990 by the Whitechapel Bell Foundry in London. The gift is from Pewaukee, WI resident Mr. Roland Perschon, who has sought a location for his bells over the years, and when Nashotah House approached Mr. Perschon, he offered them to the historic campus. Plans are underway to build a bell tower in the Garth. The Rt. Rev. Edward L. Salmon, 19th Dean of Nashotah House christened the bells on the evening of October 10, 2013. The newly baptized bells are named accordingly — Gabriel, God is our Strength; Raphael, God Heals; Jehudiel, God is Praised; Jackson Kemper; James Lloyd Breck; James DeKoven; Charles Chapman Grafton; and Uriel, God is Light.
