[*This "greate bible" was the subject of a very diligent and earnest search by the late Mrs. Cornelia Scudder, wife of Henry G. Scudder, both descendants of Thomas Scudder the first, who came to America in 1637. It was found to have been in the possession of Rebecca Scudder, wife of Nathaniel Ben- net, about forty years ago, and was by her given to a Presby- terian minister in exchange for a modern Bible. Mrs. Scudder was unable to trace it farther. It is said to have been what is termed a "black-letter" Bible, and no doubt belonged to a very early edition of the printed Bible .- C. R. S.]
