Obituary.
MRS. EDWARD FORD.

Mrs. Mary M. Ford, wife of Edward
Ford, one of the pioneer residents of
Porter, died at her home in that town
ship Sunday morning, aged nearly 70
years. Her death followed as result
of injuries received in fall while shop
ping in GAINESVILLE nearly three months
ago, which at first were thought to be
only trivial.
The deceased was born in Auburn,
N. Y, but came to this state with her
parents at an early age. She was
united in marriage to Edward Ford 81
wears ago and has since resided in the
town of Porter. Of the nine children
born to them, six are living, Margaret,
Ed and John, residing at home, Mrs.
Ed Fox and Mrs. Lawrence Barrett, of
Leyden, and Mrs. Jud Mccarthy of
Cooksville. She is also survived by her
aged husband, who, however, is very
low and is reported to be at the point
of death. He was stricken with apo
plexy shortly after his wife became i'll.
Mrs. Ford was kind neighbor and a
loving wife and mother, and her loss
will be keenly felt by her relatives and
friends.
Funeral services were held from the
Catholic church in Porter Tuesday
morning, conducted by Rev. j. E. Har-
lin, being largely attended by sympath-
izing neighbors and friends. Interment
took place in the cemetery adjoining
the church.

compelled to leave Fargo feels sure
that the change is for his best per-

the automobile business. He express

and said he was surprised at the
busting little city he found here,
n was astonished at the wonderful
crop prospects in the northwest. He
will not move his family here until
fall, but expects at that time to be-

For the first time the Old Testa-
ment was translated sometime between
2S0-l30 before Christ by seventy
translators from the original Hebrew
into the Greek language. This trans
lation is called the Septaugint version
which is the best translated ever made
of the Old Testament. Just before the
time st. Jerome made his Latin trans
lation from the Septaugint version, the
American scholars translated the Old
Testament from the Eeptaugint version
into the classical American which is
the best translation ever made for the
simple reason that the Armenian
translators understood the Hebrew and
the Greek language as profoundly as
IA Hebrew or Greek scholar ever
could. No translation of the Bible
Is recognized as authentic by the an
cient Armenian church which is not
made from the Septaugint version. and
am is true. / believe, with the Cath
Ollie church today. The Catholic Bible
YOU offer, is from the Latin Vulgate.
Of st. Jerome's translation into Eng
lish and is a splendid translation and.
a work of art which should be pos
sessed not only by all the Catholics
but also by all the Protestants and.
In fact by all men who can read. Most
Protestant ~translations are made to-
day by scholars OF ability from the
original language directly.
Another fact which makes it i'm
perative for us to call one the Cath
Ollie Bible and the other the Protestant
Bible, Is the acceptance OF the So
called non-canonical books as inspired
scriptures by the Catholic church. The
old Armenian church also accepts them
as scriptures. With all due respect to-
the opinions OF the Protestant scholars
who have, or claim to have, enough
evidence intrinsic as we'll as extrinsic,
to the proof that the seven additional
books accepted by the old Armenian
church, as well as by the Catholic
church. are not inspired books, and
therefore, should not be Incorporated
in the Bible. I would state that they
are magnificent books to read. and
that IL we did accept them as much
inspired as n Of the other books Of
the Old Testament we never would
have made a mistake.
Now a word about the Protestant
Bible you give away. I never invested
$I.98 better in my life in spite OF the
fact that I have three magnificent BIZ
bles In three languages in my library.
i shall very much appreciate these two
copies I have just bought from The
Forum. Similarly illustrated Bible in
the Armenian language published In
Venice costs $50 and the one you Of
fer for only 9S cents lis about as good,
so when I say you are giving It away
I am not e~xaggerating 1t. The type,
the paper, the mechanical execution,
and the maps and engravingg are sim
ply magnificent. No one should he

testant copy. r.. IA. Mailarian. M. ID.
