I have fifty stars in my blue hair.
I am a warrior, crying

The Liberty Bell was sent from London, England in 1752, having been commissioned to commemorate the 50-year anniversary of William Penn's 1701 Charter of Privileges. It cracked the first time it was rung while being tested and had to be recast twice before being hung in the Pennsylvania State House steeple in 1753. The Liberty Bell weighs 2,080 pounds and has a circumference of 12 feet around the lip and 7 feet 6 inches around the crown. It was rung frequently to announce special events, one of the most historically important being the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence on July 8, 1776. The name "Liberty Bell" was not adopted until 1839 when a poem entitled "The Liberty Bell" was published in an abolitionist pamphlet. The famous crack that left the bell unringable occurred on February 22, 1846, when it was rung in honor of George Washington's birthday. The word "Pennsylvania" is spelled "Pensylvania" on the Liberty Bell because the proper spelling was not universally accepted when it was cast.
