Pour qui sonner le glas ?

The bell in the 13th century church rings the hour and half hour starting with 7 am. Also, just after 7 am, there is usually a lot of additional bell ringing. Right now, they are tolling. It's a mournful sound of course since it means somebody has died. All the French people know the Hemingway title, For Whom the Bell Tolls. But when you hear the glas, that is the obvious question. In Albas, they post cards, carnets, with black borders notifying the public that the community is one short. Such carnets noirs are pasted onto the abutments of the Albas bridge. I'll look at the mairie later to see if they have the carnet noir custom in Castelfranc too.
