What is the lutine bell?
Lutine was a frigate which served in both the French Navy and the Royal Navy. She was launched by the French in 1779. The ship passed to British control in 1793 and was taken into service as HMS Lutine. She sank among the West Frisian Islands during a storm in 1799. The ship's bell (engraved "ST. JEAN - 1779") was recovered on 17 July 1858 and hung from the rostrum of the Underwriting Room at Lloyd's of London. The bell was traditionally struck when news of an overdue ship arrived - once for the loss of a ship (i.e. bad news), and twice for her return (i.e. good news). The bell has developed a crack and the traditional practice of ringing news has ended: the last time it was rung to tell of a lost ship was in 1979 and the last time it was rung to herald the return of an overdue ship was in 1989.

What is the role of the bell in the history of independence?
The bell was originally used to announce the time on ships. Then it was used by the town criers to announce the news to small communities. As communities grew the churches adopted the bell to call the people to worship and as a warning that danger was approaching. Teachers used a smaller bell to call children to school. Bells were rung across the country to announce the signing of the Declaration of Independence and Liberty from the King of England. Thus the bell that cracked during this event was called the Liberty Bell.
