Notes
From The Bell News and Ringers' Record, Volume 4 No., 179 September 5 1885 p.177. The printed version has WH as the 7th course, but the course ends are correct. This was first rung on January 16th, 1885, at St Paul’s, Burton-on-Trent, by the Burton Society. Conducted by William Wakley. Also published in Bell News, Volume 3 No. 129 September 20 1885 p.293. under the name of N J Pitstow. Henry Wilde published a rotated version from the 5th course in The Ringing World 1911, p.406 but withdrew his claim p.442
