BROOKLYN. May 2o.-That the
volume from which was made the old
King James Bible is still in existence

Greves, an old Brooklynite. What Is
more. he declares that he has 1t right

Years ago when Jabez was young
he was given a package containing
this book and told to guard 1t with his
life. The book came from England
on the Mayflower. he says, and has
always been in the hands of some
member of his family. The pages
are yellow with the age of hundreds
of years and worn from the fondling
of hundreds of hands, but the words
are clear and the script in keeping
with the days gone by.
