Following the verdict, Judge Sanchez pronounced this penance : ' ' On account of the great scandal Don Enrique (Henry) has caused the church, I sentence him to buy a bell of not less than fifty pounds weight, for the church at Los Angeles which has barely a borrowed one from San Gabriel. " In this manner the wise president secured the first bell for the tower of the parish church Nuestra Sefiora de la Reina de los Angeles. (Our Lady Queen of the Angels. ) And all this power and wisdom could not... be contradicted by Comandante-General Jose Maria Echandia, who had interrupted the wedding of the couple at San Diego and separated them after their elopement and marriage at Valparaiso. Captain Fitch sailed to Boston and bought a wed- ding-bell gift which on his return to California he presented to President Jose Sanchez in gratitude for the Judge's pronunciamento in vindication of his honor and the restoration of his wife and child to him. This bell yet chimes out the vindication of the Ameri- can and calls the faithful to worship in the adobe church opposite the plaza in Los Angeles.
