The Dead Were Not Actually Dead

many moons ago let the real truth be told the undertaker would attach a bell on the toe of the dead right before they were actually embalmed if the bell would ring the dead were actually alive many times before those alive were buried dead until that glorious bell on the toe There was a tale of a tramp that visited my grandma it was thought that he was dead until the bell rung on his toe to let them know although those many years have passed still having a great reason to grasp my grandma would share he story although today there is no longer a bell I have such a great story to tell
