It's a case of For Whom The Bell Tolls in Marsden.
For villagers have come up with a unique idea to honour the villagers who gave their lives in the Great War.
The bells at St Bartholomew’s Church will be tolled on the anniversary of every soldier’s death, and will be rung 147 times over the next few years.
They were tolled last week for the first time to mark the 100th anniversary of the death of Cpl Sydney Uttley, the first Marsden soldier to die.
Val France, who is organising the memorial bell-ringing, along with an exhibition in the village, said: “Whilst there had been a number of wounded from the village during the first months of the War, July 24, 1915, brought the first Marsden fatality – Corporal Sydney Uttley.
“He worked at Bank Bottom Mills and served with the Duke of Wellington’s Regiment.
“It is reported that Cpl Uttley had already survived a bizarre incident when a German bullet went down the barrel of his rifle as he was about to fire. A few days later, and surrounded by other soldiers from Marsden, he was severely injured by a shell burst.
“His leg was amputated within minutes, but he succumbed to his other injuries.
“He was the third generation of his family to die a violent death - his gamekeeper grandfather died when his gun accidentally discharged and his father, William, was murdered on Marsden Moor in 1903.”
She said Marsden was continuing its commemoration of World War One with its exhibition “Marsden Remembers”.
Val, the Project Co-ordinator, said: “During 2014 we produced a beautiful Remembrance Book detailing the lives of the fallen from the village. This year we are concentrating on events during 1915 and their impact on life in Marsden.
“We have new research by Cynthia Phillips and Liz Askham displaying, amongst other things, local newspaper reports and letters sent home from the Front.
“The wartime journey of two brothers from the Warwick family, which at one time had five sons in uniform, has been researched by Paul Mellors, and we still also have on display the huge work by the students of Colne Valley High School, as well as the banners made by the children of the Junior School and the Infants & Nursery School.
“The Remembrance Book will remain in the Church in perpetuity, and copies are available for research.
“We are also trying to record stories of those who survived the conflict; these are proving difficult to find – we know that many men did not speak of their experiences. If anyone in Marsden has stories handed down through their family we would be pleased to hear from them.”
The exhibition, which was made possible by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, and is open in St Bartholomew’s Church on weekends throughout the summer – Saturdays from 10.00am to 4.00pm and Sundays 1.00 to 4.00pm.
