Description "SAN FRANCISCO..."
The Canasi Sugar Refinery Bell was brought to the United States from Cuba by our founder, Milton Hershey in 1934 and placed in the center bell tower of what is now Catherine Hall. It remained there for decades. In 2001, it was placed in Copenhaver and at the time, it was 200 years old.
The bell could be originally in Hersey (oficially called Camilo Cienfuegos) - SANTA CRUZ DEL NORTE (MAYABEQUE) (CUBA) where the Hersey Company buyed plantations and mills.
