The Meneely Bell

Civics
The Meneely Bell was purchased in 1868 for a fire station located on what is now known as the North Main Parking Lot. From 1919 to 1982, the bell was used at the Huss Elementary School. Through the efforts and commitment of S. N. Crose, Fire Chief, with cooperation from the Three Rivers Community Schools, the Meneely Bell was returned to the City of Three Rivers. It is secured at the Three Rivers Fire Station in honor of S. (Sy) N. Crose, Fire Chief, whose dedicated service lasted from April 19, 1937 to December 31, 1985.
