Lathan Bible
Red Letter Art Edition.
The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New
Testaments. No publisher or date apparent, but
looks to be early 20th century or very late 19th
century.
There is a LOT of ephemera in between these pages,
including newspaper clippings of births, obituaries
and other stuff, and a bunch of checks. From
skimming the misc stuff, this appears to have
last resided with the Mabel Lathan who married
Vincent Hovel.
This Bible is currently in the possession of Tracy St. Claire
