The Liberty Bell has an intriguing and amusing story. It was commissioned from a London firm in 1752, and was cast with the words of Leviticus 25:10, “Proclaim LIBERTY throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof.” It cracked with its first ring after arrival in Philadelphia, and was recast twice by local workmen John Pass and John Stow. The bell was broken, melted, and cast into a new bell. Pass and Stow augmented the metal with copper by 10%. The second bell was ready in March 1753.
