Back when the University of Maine at Fort Kent was the Madawaska Training School, three bells signaled class times, meals and special events. One almost ended up as scrap but was rescued by equipment operator Gilman Babin (left) when he was digging a new storm drain in 1975. After decades as a lawn ornament, the refurbished bell was unveiled on campus Thursday as part of the university's $3  million capital campaign &quotLa Cloche de Fer,&quot or &quotIron Bell.&quot The artifact was brought back to life by local fabricator Tony Voisine (right).
