DESIGN FOR HAND-BELLS.

Specification forming part of Design No. 10,92 1, dated November 26, 1878; application filed September 16, 1878.

[Term of patent 7 years] To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOHN P. OoNnELL, of Kensington, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have originated and designed a Design for Hand-Bells, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making part of this specification.

The drawing shows the metal shell or hell proper, with a pendulons tongue and a bell handle. The design relates to the shape and configuration of the metal shell or hell proper.

The letter a denotes the top or roof of the bell, between which and the side of the bell is interposed the inwardly-curved or eoneave ehamfer, b. ()n the side of the bell are laid a series of sunken, downwardly pointed, Gothic-shaped depressions, o. For convenience sake, though the term is not strictly accnrate,1 term these figures half-ovals. These half ovals contain centrally the points (1. Within and also below these half -ovals there is ornamentation composed of parallel lines. Around the foot of the bell there is an out wardly-curved or convex ohainfer, a, above it a line of serrations, f, and above that line a series of points, g, broken up by half -eireles and short divergent lines.

I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, as matter of design for handbells 1. The series of downwardlypointed halfoval figures o worked upon the side of a bell, substantially as illustrated and described.

2. In combination, the ooncaved chanifer b, interposed between the top and side of the bell, and the series of downwardly-pointed half-oval figures c worked upon the side of the bell, all substantially as illustrated and described.

JOHN P. CONNELL.
