Confusing Passage

edit

I find the following passage confusing: "The first media mention of the bell's crack is in 1846. Nine years later, in February 1846, the Public Ledger reported that the bell was rung the day following Washington's Birthday, on February 23, 1846."

1846 is not 9 years later than 1846. Is this an error, or am I reading it wrong? Odd error for a featured article if it is one. 149.20.204.94 (talk) 22:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Fixed. Someone added what amounts to a bad introductory sentence. Wehwalt (talk) 00:04, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
