This Bible is in the Perth Museum archives at:

The Perth Museum,

11 Gore St. E.,

Perth, ON,

Canada.

K7H 1H4

(613) 267-1947

The inside pages of the Bible are 9 by 11 3/4 inches and

it is 3 inches thick. The covers are very thick, heavily

tooled leather.

The family records are recorded on a marriage certificate

and a "Family Record" page (one of three or four provided),

situated between the Apocrypha and The New Testament.

These pages are printed in brilliant red and blue, with

many scrolls, etc. Each page is divided into five columns

with appropriate headings.



Partial transcript of the title page is:

THE

COMPLETE

DOMESTIC BIBLE

etc. etc. etc.

Published by: J. W. LYON

GUELPH, ONTARIO

There is no publishing date, but very small print at the

bottom of each Family Record page indicates a New York

printer with a date of (I think) 1873 or 1874.
