Completion of the Story of the Görcsön Serédi's Bell

Summary/Abstract: We were dealing with this topic for the fi rst time in the year 2002. At the time, based on the existing documents, we tried to process the information concerning the procurer, maker and owner of the bell. We tried to fi nd the answer to the question of how the bell got from Görcsön to Kolozsvár, and what was its destiny. Then we supposed that not the reformed people from Görcsön tried to get it back from Kolozsvár but their catholic patron to his own usage. But the recently found two documents contradict this assumption. The one is the declaration of the patron, Andrássy Ferenc, in which he confesses that the hundred forint he got for the bell is at him and that he will turn it for the construction of the reformed church in Görcsön. The other one is an application in which the church tried to regain the bell. Probably they failed of success at this time too and the bell was destroyed in the big fi re from Kolozsvár in 1798.
