July 1919

  written in black pen vertically on left part of card 

We climbed over 400 steps to

reach the top of the Belfry of

Bruges, and in a dark &

dismal staircase at that.  But

the view at the top is worth

all the "pecks".  There is one

enormous Bell, and a dozen or

so others not so big.  The "chime"

automatically several times a day.

The tune is varied every three months.
