Treasured Hand Bell Now Housed at Lee School
Who knew that Lee School Principal Miss Charlie McGehee used an old time school hand bell to signal the end of each recess period? Now mounted on a wooden base with a descriptive brass plaque, the bell is a treasured memento that has been handed down to Miss Charlie's nephew, Dr. Larry McGehee. After Dr. McGehee’s passing, his widow Betsy donated the bell to the Lee School Association. It is now on display in Room 2, which had been Miss Charlie’s office. Submitted by Ray Harding.
