Tiffany Bible
The New Testament of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ. New York, Daniel D. Smith, 1831.
The information above was taken from the New Testament
title page. This Bible is really beaten up. The spine is gone, and
the pages are just a loose sandwich between the covers,
which are there. The main title page is gone, as are an unknown
number of other pages. The genealogy remains, however, along
with a loose cabinet photo of an unidentified man from Jamestown,
NY.

Alanson S. Tiffany October 26th 1838
Behold earth has lost a bright flower
It was plucked in its earliest bloom
He withered and died in an hour
And now lies confined in the tomb
But methinks we may not [something] him here
Confined in this narrow abode
But behold him now blooming more fair
Before the bright throne of the Lord
Ye parents behold your sweet Boy
Locked in the dear saviours embrace
Whare in inocent beauty he smiles
And bids you to dry up your tears
And oh could he now fly to you
How would he entreat you to come
That you might partisipate too
In the joys of his heavenly home
By J.W. Phillips
