The Church Bells of Essex. By the Rev. Cecil Deedes
and H. B. Walters, M.A. (For the Authors.)—This publication will be of much local interest. We can find room for one item of informa- tion only. Of the 1,728 bells described, 165 are pre-Reformation, 32 being of the fourteenth century or earlier. The seventeenth century added 382, the eighteenth 386, and the nineteenth nearly as many as the two put together (719).
