Turn to McKINLEY on page 4 ®~-r Ohio's favorite son By Lois Firestone Although he was born in Niles, William McKin­ ley's roots were embedded in Columbiana County. His grandfather David, an early settler in the vil­ lage of New Lisbon, taught in the one-:room log cabin the townspeople built for a school along the Market Street hill. His mother· Nancy grew up in East Fairfield and his father ran a foundry there before the family moved to Niles. People in the county pointed with pride to "Ohio's favorite son" during and after his rise to power. McKinley never forgot them, either - in one of his speeches he said, "I cannot forget that, when I was first a candidate for Congress, it was the splendid majority of rock-ribbed Columbiana County which assured my election." McKinley was teaching school when the Civil War broke but and he quit his job to enlist as a private in the 23rd.Regiment of the Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Repeated promotions followed; by the war's end he had risen to the rank of major. In his early 20s, McKinley moved to Canton where he studied law and opened a practice there in 1871. Five years after he settled there he was elected to the U. S. Congress - and re-elected three times, serving four terms. McKinley became popular with the county's pot­ ters who were suffering financially because of· tariff-free imports coming from European earthen­ ware and china makers. Their plight led him to study closely the protective tariff system. This resulted in the "McKinley Bill" which called for a 55 to 60 rrcent tariff on imported pottery.

  • The Bells of Corpus Christi - 09-01-2018 by Bolton Hill
    The Bells of Corpus Christi - 09-01-2018 by Bolton Hill - https://dev.fatcat-studios.com/bolton The Bells of Corpus Christi Saturday, September 01, 2018 https://dev.fatcat-studios.com/bolton/bulletin/the-bells-of-corpus-christi/ Longtime residents of Bolton Hill don't hear them anymore, for they have become part of our unconscious soundscape. But newcomers notice them and wonder where they came from. The Corpus Christi Church bells have tolled in Bolton Hill since the late nineteenth century. The first Corpus Christi bell likely tolled for the first time on January 1, 1891, when the church was completed and consecrated. The original church steeple of Corpus Christi, much smaller than the one we see now, held the first bell, which weighed 2,500 pounds and was tolled by a rope. About the size of the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, it was cast by the McShane Bell Foundry, located at Holliday and Centre Streets in Baltimore. 1 / 4 The Bells of Corpus Christi - 09-01-2018 by Bolton Hill - https://dev.fatcat-studios.com/bolton The original Corpus Christi bell, weighing a whopping 2,500 pounds. In 1912, a huge mechanical clock was installed, visible from all four sides of the church and a local landmark. It was run by weights and had to be hand-cranked. The clock's mechanism activated the chiming of four new bells that were hung in the tower, weighing between 700 and 3,000 pounds each. All four bells were again cast by McShane. The new bells began calling the Westminster Quarters every quarter-hour.

The bells can be played like a piano through a specially-made keyboard Constructed in 1930, McCartney Library is not the with music adapted to the notes available. At Christmas, oldest building on campus, but is one of landmarks carols played on the bells echo throughout the valley. of the College and an important part of its traditions. The two most prominent features of the structure are the stained glass windows by Henry Lee Willet and the Deal Carillon. The three Deal sisters were the building’s benefactors, though they chose that the Library be named for their pastor rather than themselves. The building’s iconic bell tower is filled with fourteen bronze bells cast by the McShane’s Bell Foundry in Baltimore. McShane’s Foundry, which cast its first bells in 1856, remains in operation today and is the largest western-style bell producer in the country. The keyboard used to play the 14 notes of the Deal Carillon. Source: McCartney Library. The bells also are connected to a computerized electonic ringing system programed to chime The Westminster Quarters, a familiar four-bell clock melody that chimes on each quarter-hour culminating with hour strokes on the hour. This system controls the peal that traditionally rings at the end of each commencement exercise when the faculty and graduates walk back up to north campus.
