This bell is a 400lb cast metal bell. Made in West Troy, NY 1859. Somehow Dr Clinton S. Crissman, a local family physician 1946-1992 had this bell in his possession. His family placed the bell on permanent loan at this park across from courthouse square. The bell hung in the courthouse built prior to the present one.
