Kendall Bible

Submitted by Julia Barclay( julia@barclaysworld.com).

Bible belonged to Annie KENDALL of Stonehouse in Gloucestershire, England.
I acquired the bible from my father, it belonged to the second wife of my great great grandfather.
The book is a large, leather bound volume with tooling of the leather and gilding. The edges of the binding are trimmed with brass and the book is kept closed with two brass clasps.
The publisher is William Collins, Sons & Co., Glasgow, London and Edinburgh, I can't find a copyright date on it, but it was given from husband to wife 1878. This would have been the 1st anniversary of their marriage.
