Ceremonial bells belonging to the 250-year-old Touro Synagogue in Newport, R.I., and worth more than $7 million are seen on display at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Monday, June 1, 2015. The fate of the bells and the nation's oldest synagogue to which they belong is in the hands of a Rhode Island court which will decide on a dispute between the congregation that currently worships at the Touro Synagogue and the nation's first Jewish congregation, Shearith Israel, of New York. The disagreement began over the proposed sale to a museum of ceremonial bells for $7.4 million and has become a bitter dispute over who is in charge of the 250-year-old Touro Synagogue in Newport.
