Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments,
Philadelphia, William W. Harding, 1872, Superfine
Edition. Variety of Hills #1874?
The writing looks to be in the same handwriting,
and possibly at the same time. On the cover is
"A. A. Howard", so I assume this was the Bible of
Augustus A. Howard and not his parents.
This Bible was transcribed by and is currently in the
possession of Tracy St. Claire of 114 Hilltop Lane,
Sleepy Hollow, IL 60118. [email protected]
