Parke Bible
This Bible does not have either title page, or anything
printed to indicate its edition. Rogers Parke wrote
that he purchased it in 1853, so it is at least that old.
The binding is in good, intact condition and the pages
are fair. It appears to be complete.
The inside front and back covers contain some
gibberish writing. A calling card was inside with the name
of Alvin Armor.
Transcribed by and in the possession of Tracy St. Claire,
