Old Books

            As I have mentioned before, I love old things, including books. These seven religious books are probably the oldest ones I have, and with the exception of one, have all been given to me by various people. From left to right:

Constructive Studies in the Life of Christ by Ernest D. Burton & Shailer Matthews, copyright 1901.

Sermons on Several Occasions, Vol. 1  by Rev. John Wesley, copyright 1841. (This book, which is not in the greatest condition, was given to me by a lady in my congregation some years ago. Not long after, she passed away from cancer). This one is especially precious to me because of that.

A Guide To Understanding the Bible by Harry Emerson Fosdick, copyright 1938.

The Gospel Preacher: A Book of Twenty Sermons, Vol. 1 by Benjamin Franklin (the minister..not the statesman), copyright 1879. (On the inside is written, "Isabella McDonald, Sept. 20th 1879, Grass Valley, Nevada"). This one, along with a bunch of other books (Including a set of early 50's encyclopedias in mint condition), were given to me nearly twenty years ago by my uncle  who passed away last year. 

Bible Biography by J.E. Whittaker, D.D., copyright 1911.

Studies in the Forgiveness of Sins by Jessee R. Kellems, copyright 1926.

Sabbath Songs by David C. Cook & Martin Towne, copyright 1886. (Given to me years ago by a lady I once worked with, who knew I liked old books).
