Georg Scholl death 12 Nov 1728 film 4137289 page 430

Translation request: just need the German word/words that refer to the ringing of the bells for Georg.

"For example there were different levels of funeral ceremonies. On one page of the church book there are named "Läutung der kleinen Glocke" (ringing of the little bell), "Läutung aller Glocken" (ringing of all bells), "Glockenklang" (sound of bells). The little bell is often also called the "Totenglocke" (death bell)."

Good Friday morning Kent,

The phrase you are asking about is: ". . . mit Klang, gesang, und einer Leichpredigt . . ."

Translation: with sound, singing and a funeral sermon.

I would interpret "Klang" as: sound [of bells].

Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. Thanks for the clarification. Kent

Robert, that makes sense since Ulrich used the word Glockenklang to mean the sounding of the bells. In other words to sound the bells is louder than just ringing them. Small point but important to me in this context. Kent😁

You're welcome, Kent.
