22d A state of nervous anxiety or fear -I-D/-P 4d A hammer for striking a bell T-P-E- I notice that someone has already answered Tapper but I can't find that definition in any dictionary, can anyone help please.
If you google you will find several references to support tapper.
e.g. to do with railway signalling
Either integral to the instrument or separately mounted, there is a single-stroke bell and a bell operating device, either a tapper or a plunger
Many thanks Grasscarp I have tried to Google as well as look Chambers without any luck. Do you have any ideas for the other clue.
