At the April 3, 1922 regular monthly meeting, on a motion it was agreed to postpone the holding of the bazaar until April 28-29 so as to coincide with the arrival of the new fire truck.

At the fire company bazaar held on April 28-29, 1922, the dedication of the new fire engine was held and the truck was placed into service.  For more than three (3) decades, the fire engine proudly protected & served the town of Enhaut and the surrounding communities.  As it was nearing the end of its service life, the fire company knew it was time to replace the Hahn with a more modern piece of equipment.  

At the December 1, 1952 regular monthly meeting, Foster Salerno reported on the necessary paperwork that was needed to be submitted for a federal grant to pursue the purchase of a new fire engine.

On February 13, 1953, the  officers of the company met with Mr. Mease, a representative from the Federal Civilian Defense,  to explain the details of a grant.

At a special meeting held on February 15, 1953,  a vote of 22 to 1 was in favor to pursue the purchase through the Federal Civilian Defense.  The grant  monies would be $6,500.00 and the members by a motion from Foster Salerno and 2nd by Hezzy Paull  agreed to spend $5,500.00 for the balance of the new fire engine & additional equipment.  A motion was made by Richard Speese and 2nd by Frank Fischer  to borrow $5,000.00 from the bank for the new fire engine. The vote again was 22 to 1 in favor.  It was from this point forward that production of the new fire engine would start.

 There were progress reports given during the production stage, and finally on November 1, 1954 the new fire engine was delivered and placed into service. It  was a GMC 750gpm pumper with the total cost being $13,429.00.

At this point in time, there were now two (2) fire engines in the station and discussion on selling the 1922 Hahn had become more and more evident.

At the February 7, 1955 regular monthly meeting, the members voted to accept sealed bids and sell the 1922 Hahn.

At the April 4, 1955 regular monthly meeting, a bid was given by the Chambers Hill Fire Co.  A motion by Anthony Hrestak, 2nd by Dan Zart, and agreed by the members present to sell the 1922 Hahn to the Chambers Hill Fire Co. for a cash price of $750.00. As per the truck selling chairman, Steve Szekeres, it was decided to retain possession of the bell, which had rang proudly for 33 years.

It was not until the November 7, 1960 regular monthly meeting that the foreman, Foster Salerno, reported that the bell from the 1922 Hahn will now be mounted onto the 1954 GMC.  It was from this date until May 8, 1982, the bell again rang for another 21 ½ years.  At the May 1982 regular monthly meeting, the members agreed to sell the 1954 GMC  to Steve Smedley for $675.00 cash.  Again the bell was retained by the company and placed into storage.

With the arrival of the newly placed into service 1982 FMC 1000gpm pumper along with the 1975 Dodge SWAB Rescue, these two (2) pieces now served the town of Enhaut & Swatara Township for another eleven (11) years until it was decided to downsize to one (1) piece of equipment that would serve as fire suppression & rescue capabilities combined. The new piece would be a refurbished 1981 Mack CF and designated as Rescue 42. Again, the bell was called to active duty and mounted onto the new piece and the rig was placed into service on May 30, 1993.  It was from this date until November 30, 2008, that the bell again rang for another 15 ½  years. The Rescue, having given 15+ years of service life, was put Out Of Service and replaced with another unit.  It was again at this point that the bell was removed and put into storage.

At the quarterly Co. 42 meeting held on July 16, 2019, members  Albert Matjasic Jr. and George Raudensky presented to the members present a project that was in the works to have the bell from the 1922 Hahn put back into a serviceable manner. A motion made by Frank Raudensky, 2nd by Robert Spandler, and so  approved by the membership to follow through with the project. 

At the next quarterly meeting held on October 15, 2019, the mounted bell along with the display plaque was shown to the members present.  

Albert & George suggested to the members present that we approach a business for future display of the bell.

At the quarterly meeting held on January 21, 2020, Albert Matjasic Jr. told the members present that he contacted the Wiedeman Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Inc., to discuss displaying our bell on their premises. On June 15, 2020, Albert & George met with Mr. Dennis Wiedeman. A former volunteer firefighter himself, he was honored that the fire company wanted to display the bell at his business.

So as the bell now approaches its 99th birthday, let it again toll loudly when called upon for those who have served so proudly.
