city school superintendent the Douay Bible would
be included in the list of supplies for the public
schools of this city and that teachers who desired
do at liberty to use it in the schools

the sacred book. No attempt will be made here
to give all the differences between this version
and that of King James, but the first point which
strikes the person who compares the two is the
