At nine o'clock each night, the cur
few Is rung, In London, Kngbcid,
writes a correspondent, ns it has been
for .".'Kt years. This oldtime custom
is slill n part of the duty of the chief
porter of Lincoln's Inn. The bell
which is tolled was originally brought
from Calais by the ill faled Robert
Devereux, earl of Ksscx. in 1"!)C,. It
is bung in the old Lincoln's Inn chapel,
erected during the reign of .lames I,
in the building of which Ben Jonson
r:lfi to hove used his I rowel. "At
8:4o each night I light my lantern
and proceed to the belfry," said the
chief porter who In hi.s modesty
wishes to remain nnonynious. "As
soon as the hist stroke of nine has
sounded I slrike the bell r.O times.
Why 00? Well, I don't know, except
that it Is the custom. The only time
the curfew lias not been sounded in
Lincoln's Inn during the past HOO
years or so was during the war after
the bomb fell In Chancery lane In Oc
tober, 1915. I rang the Indl. as usual,
at nine o'clock. The bomb fell 2?5
minutes later, shaking the whole
place. Some people thought that the
curfew was responsible, so It was sus
pended until the, night of the armistice."
