Platt Book of Common Prayer

This bible was submitted by Dick Platt (r.platt@snet.net).

"I'm submitting for your perusal a number of pages, not actually from a
bible, but from a Book of Common Prayer, 1766, kept by the family of
Uriah Platt of Huntington, NY. The book is now in the possession of a
descendant, the Rev. Robert T. Hollett of Chestertown, MD. Please note
that I have made various editorial comments in brackets.

Best wishes,
Dick Platt"
