Belfry Call

Ring for help from bed with a cord-pulled bell

A bedside bell tower for calling someone. A small brass bell hangs from a skewer through the belfry, and a cord tied to it runs out of the arch to the bed: one tug and it rings through the house. Pour a little gravel in through the arches so the tower stands firm.
