On Saturday, July 8th [1893], at the church of St. John the Evangelist, a very interesting event took place, namely, the unveiling of a new peal-board, recording the two peals of Grandsire Triples [p002 & p003].

Shortly after four o ’clock a short touch of Grandsire Triples was rung, after which the vicar offered prayer, and in a few well-chosen remarks he impressed upon the ringers their great responsibilities not only as ringers but church workers. Theirs, he said, was a work for God, to summon people to his house for worship, and he reminded them of their own duty after that summons to attend the service themselves. He then unveiled the tablet.

Mr. S. Hayes (people’s warden), then spoke a few kind words wishing the ringers every success in their endeavours.

Two courses of Grandsire Caters were then rung on the handbells, and a touch of Triples on the tower bells. A vote of thanks to the vicar and warden brought the event to a close.
