Aldon Blethen, Jerk

There's a story central to Seattle, but one seldom told, because of some complex reasons. The story revolves around a set of bells donated to the University of Washington by Aldon J. Blethen, publisher and owner of the Seattle Times.


The Blethen Chimes, fresh from the
trip from the foundary,
being offloaded, 1912.


One of these days, I'll post that story. It's interesting.
