Cover page of this Bible has date MDCLXVII (1667) (Can this be the actual publishing date, or the date of the version produced? Brought from, or possibly published in, Switzerland in 1905). "This wonderful old bible was protected from damage from animals, Indians, weather and generations of children and vigorous circuit riding with its attendant lively preaching and praying in many a backwoods cabin or clearing. Note the boards which cover the outer covers of the bible, the strong reinforcement of hand binding with tough twine, and the metal reinforcements, only one of which is still intact on the bible. It is quite probable that this bible also was placed in a family bible box when the family moved from place to place."</div>
