	John Bell (Tennessee politician) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Bell (February 15, 1797–September 10, 1869) was a U.S. politician.
		After the collapse of the Whig Party in the 1850s, Bell was among the leaders of the small group (mostly border state and middle state Whigs) who attempted to preserve the Whig Party in another form, and became Presidential candidate of the United States Constitutional Union Party.
		Bell carried Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee, largely as a result of the division of Democratic votes between John C. Breckenridge and Stephen A. Douglas, but received less than 3% of the vote in Northern states.

		The "Bell Witch" is a bonafide "rural legend." The story of a haunting (and perhaps a feud between two families,) it has long held a place in American folklore.
		The abuse escalates as the "witch" vows to kill the family patriarch, John Bell, and torments Betsy, the teenage daughter, while simultaneously protecting her -- it interferes with Betsy's engagement to one young man and encourages the narrator, a mature, educated man, in his suit.
