This Bible belongs to Alice A. Gray who has it in exchange
with Emily R. Gray for 12 volumes of an encyclopedia.
It is to belong after A. A. G. to Beata and her family as
George has the Moses Gray and Roxana Howard Gray
Family Bible.
I consider this a rare and unusual edition -- note the
illustrations -- taken from Egyptian and Etrusean Tombs
and other reliable sources. Antique Coins - Sculptures etc. etc.
see index of illustrations end of volume.
