Waters Bible

NOTE: When I saw it and photographed it (1970's), this Bible was in the 
possession of my grandfather's aunt, Gertrude Waters Norman, (now deceased) 
of Des Arc, Prairie Co., AR. I do not know where it is now. There was no 
date in the front of the Bible, nor was there a publisher shown on the 
title page. I have more information on these people if anyone is interested.
