Hardy & Jane E Edwards Ormond Bible

The original Bible was in the possession of Frederick Lee Edwards and 
is now at East Carolina University, Joyner Library, Manuscript Division. 
I forgot to copy it and am grateful to Martha Elmore on the staff at 
the library for sending me a copy and making notes where it is impossible 
to read on the copy. Even the original Bible is difficult to read.
