Than 200 A. D.-Further Search
Promises Rich Results.

Denver. Oct. 25.-Dr. Cobern. pastor

which is new to the world. This is
that in the logia, which was unearthed
by Megsrs. Greenfield end Hunt under
the direction of Dr.. Flinders Petrie Of
Oxford university in Egypt last Jan
uary, there was found besides the note
book leaf containing what purported
to be the sayings of Jesus Christ, a
leaf of the New Testament. The leaf
contained nearly the whole of the first
chapter of Matthew and was written
exactly the same as our Greek Tesla
ment Of today. DR.. Cobern says that
this is our earliest record of the Bible
and that in the 81 baskets of papyrt
that were taken out there might be
found a copy Of the Scriptures. He
also pictures what bl0W to infdelis1n
it might be and what a Strengthening
of the Christian cause.
He says there is no doubt of the
Genuineness of these finds; that such
critics as Professors Harmacb and
Thompson have passed upon them and
declare that they could not have been
written later than 200 4. D.
