Liberty Bell Twin Displayed at Villanova College
The article recalls Philadelphia's Liberty Bell twin, the Pohdon Bell, cast in London after the original cracked. It served in the state house 1753 to 1828, then passed to Augustinian communities, burned and recast into a half-size bell used at Fianeva College and later at a Jamaica SJ church. Now the half-size bell has been returned to Villanova, displayed in the college library.
