Merrifield Bible

The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments,
Thomas Nelson & Sons, New York, No Date. Looks 20th
Century. I would assume that it was new at presentation -- there
is a handwriting change between 1930 and 1932. Has a soft
cover that was not meant for multi-generational use.
