Paul Revere Bell
From Salem Links and Lore
- The minister of East Church, Reverend William Bentley, ordered this illustrious bell from Paul Revere's factory in Boston's North End on 1801.
It hung from the belfry of the church at the corner of Hardy and Essex Streets. When the church was torn down in 1846, the bell was used at the Bentley School, built on Essex Street in 1861.
- The bell is now in view at the Peabody Essex Museum.
