The Old Bell of Independence; Or, Philadelphia in 1776

By Henry C. Watson

"The Old Bell of Independence or Philadelphia in 1776" inspires the reader to turn back to the days the American history as we know it was made. The author states: "In the enjoyment of the freedom and prosperity of our country, we are apt to under-rate the means by which that enjoyment was secured to us, and to forget the men who worked for that end." In the "Old Bell of Independence," the events, the people, the talks, and the emotions of the days the Independence was proclaimed see the light of the day again, making us remember the greatness of the past.
