Marlborough, Massachusetts - John Brown's Bell

During the Civil War the Marlbor Regulars were dispatched to Harpers Ferry, Va to subdue the John Brown rebellion. Well they did and captured the bell from Harpers Ferry. They brought back the "John Brown Bell" and it is in a small park in downtown Marlboro, MA. Harper's Ferry has tried on several occasions to buy back the bell since Harper's Ferry is certainly more of a tourist attraction than Marlboro, MA. However Marlboro will not sell for any price and Harper's Ferry does not have their "John Brown Bell" [Lee Hibbs, 02/10/2000]
