Tate Bible
The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments,
Oxford, Printed at the University Press, For the Hibernian
Bible Society, Instituted in the Year 1806; and Sold at the
Society's Depository, 10 Upper Sackville Street, Dublin.
I can't place a date from this book, because there are too
many Oxford University Press varieties to sort through.
This is a small 24 mo. Bible, with both of its covers off.
It was later signed clumsily by Henrietta Linsley of Ionia,
MI, who may or not be a relative.
There is a lucky four leaf clover (from Ireland?) placed inside.
Transcribed by and in the possession of Tracy St. Claire,
tracy@stclaire.org.
