On Monday last was rung at our Parish Church by St. Peter’s Company, an abstract of a peal of Union Treble Bob, consisting of ten thousand and eighty changes, which was performed with great exactness in six hours and fifteen minutes, being the largest number of changes ever rung in this peal in England. It was composed by one of the above Ringers.
