A Sunday School Teacher (editor) A Century of Bibles.
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Griffith and Rowland Press. 1906 Hardcover Fair
16mo - 15.5 x 9 cm.; 88 pp. Green / blue cloth over boards with red lettering on the front board. First published in 1904, this edition is courtesy the American Baptist Publication Society. The library markings are quite a few and some are blatant, such as the text block edges are stamped.

Aside from the library stamping and attachment madness, the book is in a quite reasonably good condition.; Ex-Library 20515

The first section is mostly made up of letters of St. Margaret Mary announcing this most pleasant charge entrusted to the fathers of the Society. Then follow some decrees of General Congregations in the new Society officially accepting that pleasantest of tasks. Relevant numbers of the Epitome of our Institute, incorporating the legislation on the subject, are also presented here. The third and longest part contains seven letters issued by our Generals during these last hundred years on the Devotion to the Sacred Heart in the Society". The translations of the letters of St. Margaret Mary are by Fr. Herbst. Library pocket on the inside of the back cover, library stamp on several interior pages but not affecting any text, and the covers were detached from the text block but have been previously refastened.
