Presented to Lizzie A. Guest on her tenth birthday by John W. Guest (her father), November 28th 1886. Currently owned by Ormond Donald Higgins (her grandson) 2516 Girdwood Rd. Timonium, MD 21093. This bible was inherited by my Aunt Marie Agnes (Coyne) Higgins upon the death of Elizabeth A. Higgins. Upon the death of Marie the bible passed to Mrs. Marlene Lufriu of Littleton, Pa. (Marie’s niece). Marlene presented the bible to me in October, 1988. I will be eternally grateful for this gift.
