112 THE CHURCH BELLS OF DORSET. 



Stoke Abbot. 4th : Probably I. T., of Exeter. Cf. Ellacombe's 

 Somerset 29 (at E. Quantoxhead). For 1755 read 1725. 



Stourpaine. 2nd : Add EM R M and between Canons I F. 

 3rd: For 1871 read 1876. 4th: Instead of "re-cast" read 

 " cast." 



Slower Provost. Tenor : For " Priory" read " Friary" 



Sydling. Tenor and old 2nd : Both unknown. 



Thornford. Two new treble bells cast by Warner and Son are 

 now (1906) being hung in the tower as a memorial to the late 

 Rector. They are said to be inscribed (i), Wilfrid 1905 (2), 

 Roxby 1905. 



Tincleton. For one bell read two bells. 



Toller Whelme These bells are of steel. 



Tolpuddle. ist: Probably Salisbury. Cf. Somerset, Fig. 7, 

 and Westerleigh, Gloucs. (See my paper.) The history of this 

 cross wants investigation. It occurs in South Hants and 

 W. Sussex. 



3rd : Apparently by John Saunders, of Reading (for whom 

 see Cocks' Ch. Bells of Bucks), but, if so, it was cast in his 

 early days at Winchester. The stamp should have the arms of 

 the See (crossed keys and sword) ? There is, I believe, another 

 of his bells at Hammoon. H. B. W. 



Tenor : Unknown, a purely local type. 



Tonerspuddle. Unknown, probably i4th century. 



Warmwell. Tenor : By I. T. (cf. 2nd). The border occurs in 

 Somerset (Ellacombe, fig. 86). The rose stamp occurs at 

 Keynsham, Somerset, by a founder whose initials are R. A. 

 (date 1654). He must have succeeded I. T. H. B. W. 



Wimborne Minster. The following account of the Wimborne 

 Minster bells is by Mr. G. F. Score, parish clerk : " As from time 

 to time enquiries are made respecting the fine peal of bells in 

 Wimborne Minster, I venture to give a few particulars concern- 

 ing them. Through the kindness of the churchwardens in 

 allowing me to examine their accounts, I have been able to 

 verify most of the particulars and to give many items never 

 before published.
