HAS A HAND. WRITTEN BIBLE
A Montreal Man Spent Many Years
Preparing Unique Manuscript.

Hugh Russell of Notre Dame de
Grace is the proud but reverent pos
SCISSOR Of what IL surely one OF the
most wonderful and unique books in
the world. II is a copy of the Bible
written entirely in his own hand and.
as now bound, strange TO say, not
larger in size than the old style family
Bible. 1t is beautifully written, to,
bearing evidence In every word OF an
infinite patience and reverence, recall
ing the work OF a medieval monk. 1t is
certainly a wonderful piece of callig :?
raphy thruout.
Mr. Russell is very modest about his
achievement. mo, / am not mini
ster" he said. II am only an ordinary
commercial traveller knight of the
road-but | was brought up by gOdly
parents. both OF them living still in
Montreal, and have love for the book
of books.
People should turn to the Bible to-
day and maybe my work may help
little bit in that direction. Yes. il is
sadly neglected book and some steps
should be taken to have more atten-
ton paid to the book of books, in
which this great conflict is assuredly
foretoid."
Mr.. Russell. who is n Presbyterian
Scotsman, began his work in 1894 and
finished 1t on st. Andrews day, No
vember 80, 1916.
The work was done in odd moments
of leisure, altho more than half of it
was done since the present war began.
1t is written in what Mr.. Russell
himself calls "a peculiar handwriting,
almost half printing IT," 1t is perfectly
legible, and, says Mr.. Russell, without
making any boast, | would be willing,
II ! had the money, to offer 500 for
every error or omission anyone could
find in it." There are altogether ,9S7
pages the New Testament taking up
All of these. There are double columns
on each page. 1t was written in Sec
tions of twenty-four pages each.
